Canada's energy sector is changing significantly, aiming for a varied energy mix and increased low-carbon energy solutions. This change is not limited to new technologies; it also includes the introduction of different and innovative ownership models, affecting energy production and distribution. These shifts are key to understanding Canada's approach to a more sustainable energy future.

In British Columbia, district energy facilities are becoming more common, with real estate developers leading the way in offering energy services like heating and cooling to large developments. This approach can lower costs and carbon emissions and provides a model for how private companies can get involved in the energy market.

In Ontario, there's a trend toward private ownership in energy through the adoption of sub-metering in residential buildings. This allows buildings to better control and reduce their energy use, presenting a chance for companies to offer specialized energy services and for consumers to have more say in their energy consumption.

In Alberta, partnerships are forming where Indigenous communities, with government support, can own stakes in large energy projects. This helps with economic growth and community development and gives Indigenous groups a chance to participate in the energy sector.

These changes in ownership across Canada point to a shift toward more varied and active involvement in the energy industry, offering new opportunities for businesses and communities. Our webinar will delve into these changes and what they mean for Canada's energy future.
