Moment Partners to Deploy Clean Energy Storage Tech in Europe and Latin America
Wind- and solar-powered energy sources are gaining popularity in Canada as the nation advances toward a Net Zero target by 2050. But these intermittent sources, on their own, are not consistent enough to reliably fuel entire power grids. One way to fill the fluctuating energy gap is through energy storage systems. “Energy storage is pivotal […]

Despite Uncertainty, Canada’s Clean Energy Transition ‘Remains Economically Viable’
Last month, we reported that Canada backed down on electric vehicle mandates that were deemed unfeasible. The move made some ask the question: is it economic suicide to keep pushing for a “Net Zero” future? “It’s been clear for some time that … EV mandates are unrealistic,” Barry Penner, a former B.C. Minister of Environment […]
Carbon, Homes, and the Cost of Piecemeal Climate Action
It’s been about six months since Canada repealed the federal Carbon Tax for consumers. The move was framed as a necessary relief measure—meant to ease growing cost-of-living pressures—but it marked something deeper: a failure of climate policy to integrate with the systems people actually live in. The tax aimed to price pollution, but it did […]
Government Invests $3.2M to Support Five Energy Efficiency Projects in Remote Areas
Canada is investing in a skilled workforce for the clean energy sector. Federal minister Tim Hodgson, who heads Energy and Natural Resources, this month announced $3.2 million in funding through the Toward Net-Zero Homes and Communities Program to support five clean energy projects across remote regions in Western and Northern Canada. The initiative promises to […]
Solenery Simplifies Canada’s Path to Clean Energy
Canada’s clean energy transition hinges not only on policy and technology, but on the everyday decisions of households and businesses. Yet for many Canadians, the path to installing solar panels or adopting other net-zero solutions remains unclear, with questions about cost, incentives, and trusted providers often stalling progress. That’s where Solenery comes in. Founded by […]
