Momentum to expand interprovincial electricity transmission and trade is building and Provinces and Territories appear readier than ever to overcome historic silos and enhance East-West electricity transmission capacity. What are the long-term benefits — for the economy, for grid reliability, and for the environment — and are they finally at hand? Join senior energy leaders Mark Sidebottom (Nova Scotia Power), Tim Eckel (formerly SaskPower), Vittoria Bellissimo (Canadian Renewable Energy Association (CanREA)) and Philippe Dunsky for a timely webinar on what expanded interprovincial transmission in Canada could mean. Together, they’ll explore: The Opportunity: insights into the regions, technologies and projects currently at play, as well as the key benefits that expanded transmission can offer. The Challenges: despite several success stories, interprovincial transmission in Canada has been limited. We’ll explore the planning, regulatory, infrastructure and market barriers that have prevented further expansion to date. The Vision: the roles that utilities, government, system operators and the private sector can play to advance interprovincial transmission. Don’t miss the chance to gain a deeper understanding around this timely and complex topic. Register now.

Le cours Bases des pompes à chaleur est conçu pour doter les professionnels de l'industrie de l'efficacité énergétique des connaissances et des compétences nécessaires pour comprendre, sélectionner et préconiser les thermopompes dans des environnements résidentiel, commercial ou industriel. Le cours couvre les aspects les plus importants des thermopompes, notamment leur fonctionnement de base, les différents types de thermopompes et les réfrigérants. Ce cours d'une journée fournit aux participants les outils nécessaires pour développer une compréhension globale des systèmes de thermopompes et des compétences pour présenter des projets de thermopompes à leurs clients de tous les secteurs. Une activité comprenant un scénario de vente intégrative à la fin du cours prépare les participants à réussir dans l'industrie des systèmes de CVCA.

The Royal Danish Consulate in Toronto and the Zero Emissions Innovation Centre (ZEIC) invite you to a dynamic virtual symposium exploring the future of district energy and the critical role of heat planning in the clean energy transition. This 90-minute webinar will feature experts and leaders from British Columbia and Denmark, showcasing global best practices and cross-sector collaboration across the district energy value chain. Participants will gain actionable insights into planning, regulation, development, and technologies in low-carbon thermal networks. Key Topics: Fundamentals of urban and district heat planning Cross-border case studies from Denmark and Vancouver Planning tools: zoning, incentives, GIS, and heat mapping Fireside chats with developers, utilities, and planners Live audience Q&A to foster dialogue and peer learning Speakers include representatives from British Columbia and Denmark: Maria Lind Arlaud, State of Green Lars Gullev, Gullev Advisory Derek Pope, City of Vancouver, Neighbourhood Energy Utility (NEU) Sonja Wilson, Reshape Strategies Nicola Simon, British Columbia Utilities Commission (BCUC) Malcolm Shield, Wesgroup Properties Whether you’re a policymaker, planner, developer, utility, or advocate, this session will leave you better equipped to shape the future of thermal energy systems in your community.

Join us for a virtual town hall event to learn about the City of Toronto’s proposed building emissions performance standards (BEPS). Building emissions performance standards (BEPS) have been identified as one of the most impactful policies the City of Toronto can implement to reduce emissions from existing buildings. These standards aim to reduce overall emissions reductions while also supporting building owners with policies, programs and incentives, particularly for buildings that may face greater challenges to decarbonize. At the virtual townhall, you’ll have a chance to hear from City staff about what type of emissions will be covered by the bylaw including building type and size, what metrics will be used, additional support offered by the City and proposed compliance timelines. A survey will be launched on June 24 for participants to provide their feedback. For more information about building emissions including the City’s supporting TransformTO Net Zero Strategy and Net Zero Existing Buildings Strategy,  visit: www.toronto.ca/buildingemissions or e-mail buildingemissions@toronto.ca.
