QUEST Canada's Pan-Atlantic NCA Cohort opens Call for Expressions of Interest

QUEST Canada is looking for municipalities in the Atlantic Provinces to participate in the new Pan-Atlantic Net-zero Community Accelerator (NCA) Program

Atlantic Canada // QUEST Canada invites small and mid-sized municipalities across New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, and Newfoundland & Labrador to join the new, three-year Pan-Atlantic Net-zero Communities Accelerator (NCA) program.

With an initial target Pan-Atlantic cohort of 15 municipalities, eligible applicants include local governments (Indigenous, municipal, regional or a group of small municipalities and/or bands), or organizations applying on behalf of a local government or a group of local governments (e.g. a local energy distributor or not-for-profit organization). 

Why Participate?:

• Get tailored services to help you develop and/or implement a community energy plan or initiative

• Help reduce your GHG emissions  – communities directly and indirectly account for 51% of GHG emissions

• For every % of reduction in community energy use, more dollars are kept in your local economy

To-date, over 35 municipalities have participated in the program, across New Brunswick and the three Prairie Provinces. This new, three-year Pan-Atlantic NCA program is funded by the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency (ACOA), NS Power and Suncor Energy Foundation.
