The nomination deadline for the annual Cleantech Awards approaches.
The 2025 Cleantech Awards are set to spotlight exceptional companies and individuals advancing innovation, economic leadership, and technology adoption across Canada’s cleantech sector.
This year, there are regional awards for British Columbia, Alberta, and Atlantic Canada, with nominations open for each region through February 20th.
For B.C., a cleantech powerhouse, it’s the province’s sixth annual rendition. For Alberta, a rising star, it’s the third round.
Award nominees will be honoured at in-person celebrations starting with Vancouver in March, then Halifax in April, and concluding with Calgary in May.
To cover the full spectrum of contributors to the ecosystem, the 2025 Cleantech Awards are broken down into distinct categories as follows Venture of the Year (Startup); Venture of the Year (Scaleup); Adopter of the Year; Cleantech Supporter of the Year; and Funder of the Year.
Startups who have won Venture of the year previously include Arca and Moment Energy from B.C. and Litus and Future Fields from Alberta.
Other prior Cleantech Award winners include Winecrush Technology, Clir Renewables, Creative Destruction Lab, the BC Centre for Innovation & Clean Energy, the Innovative Clean Energy Fund, Energy Futures Lab, and Enhance Energy.
