On April 11, Canadian Consulting Engineer will host a virtual summit on a key topic in Canada’s energy transition: the need to decarbonize remote communities.

Through tax credits, infrastructure funding and carbon pricing, the federal government is incentivizing communities to switch from hydrocarbons to emissions-free and/or renewable energy sources, such as solar, nuclear and biomass. In addition to weaning residential, commercial and industrial facilities off increasingly costly diesel and natural gas, this shift promises to help meet goals relating to First Nations prosperity, equity and business development.

Canadian Consulting Engineer has gathered industry experts to speak to the scale of such opportunities, the progress made so far and the current reality on the ground. In addition to consulting engineers, this event will be of interest to municipal and provincial government leaders, technology suppliers and others directly involved in these new opportunities.
