More than 80% of Canada's electricity produced is non-emitting and the sector has reduced GHG emissions by more than 45% since 2005. The electricity sector is a key enabler of this ambitious climate goal.
This year, CEA's Centre of Excellence focused exclusively on a unique group of projects that directly align with the Government of Canada's emissions reduction targets in order to achieve net zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by the year 2050.
"Our industry is at the forefront of this energy transformation thanks to our members and their dedication to providing safe, sustainable and reliable electricity." These projects will not only help shape our collective energy future but also meet our collective climate goals", noted Francis Bradley, President and CEO of the Canadian Electricity Association. "The 2021 Centre of Excellence showcases 15 unique innovative projects from 10 of our members across Canada. Since its launch in 2018, the Canadian Electricity Association's (CEA), Centre of Excellence (CoE) has demonstrated Canadian ingenuity in cutting-edge technology to create a more sustainable future. This years' Centre of Excellence awards showcases the innovators in Canada's electricity sector who are rising to the Government's challenge. Canadian Electricity Companies are working to achieve this challenge by innovating and developing best practices to ensure a cleaner and more reliable grid. Earlier this year, the Government of Canada announced the introduction of a Clean Electricity Standard to achieve a 100% Net-Zero emitting electricity system by 2035.
