Develop a Canadian energy strategy with provinces and territories.

What success looks like

Greater energy conservation, greater inclusion of clean energy and innovative technologies in Canada's energy future, reduced diesel use in remote and off-grid communities, and effective market access for Canadian energy exports.

Government's narrative on progress

Federal, provincial and territorial energy ministers are taking joint action under the provincial/territorial-led Canadian Energy Strategy. The strategy promotes energy efficiency, develops new energy technology and innovations, identifies priority energy infrastructure, and advances international energy collaboration. These initiatives complement the Pan-Canadian Framework on Clean Growth and Climate Change, helping Canada meet its emissions reduction target and grow the economy. In June 2018, the Generation Energy Council Report was released, outlining a vision, pathways and advice on a prosperous and low-carbon future. The government will build on the work of Generation Energy, to engage provinces and territories in accelerating clean growth strategies, and enhancing the energy sector’s competitiveness.
