Commercial renewable energy generation will be an important part of Alberta’s new sustainable grid. But community-owned renewables controlled by individuals, cooperatives, and communities can also serve an important role.

Decentralized renewable power facilities — owned by the individuals and communities they serve — can modernize the outdated economic framework of our energy system. These facilities can leverage the entrepreneurial spirit of our people and put power in our hands.

Let’s create a renewable energy program that lets us all benefit from Alberta’s renewable move.
