The Quay - 100 Queens Quay East, 3rd Floor
In Person
Ontario's nuclear industry, a global leader for over 50 years, has powered the province, facilitated our transition off coal, and now generates more than half of Ontario's electricity. Ontario is experiencing a nuclear renaissance, with investments aimed at providing clean electricity for a growing population, new industries, and rapid electrification to combat climate change.
The Opportunity: Ontario's nuclear power is entering a new era with significant refurbishments at all three major stations. The first commercial small modular reactors in North America are being deployed at Darlington, and Bruce Power is planning a large-scale expansion to double its output.
The Challenge: How can we maximize the economic opportunities of our expanding nuclear industry? Beyond supplying clean electricity and creating high-quality jobs, a well-managed nuclear sector can support robust supply chains and foster cutting-edge research, creating local and export opportunities.
Why Attend? As a business leader, this event is your gateway to capitalizing on the immense potential of Ontario’s nuclear industry. Here’s what you’ll gain:
-
Strategic Insights & Leadership Perspectives: Learn about major nuclear projects and Ontario’s pioneering role in cutting-edge nuclear technologies from top experts.
-
Supply Chain & Workforce Development: Discover how localizing supply chains can maximize economic benefits and understand strategies for cultivating a skilled workforce.
-
Export Potential: Explore new avenues for international trade and export through Ontario's leadership in nuclear technology.
This breakfast event is a unique opportunity to position your business at the forefront of a transformative industry. Connect with industry leaders, policymakers, and innovators shaping the future of clean energy and economic growth in Ontario. Join us to be a part of the conversation powering Ontario’s future.
Climate Tech Breakfast Series: Is Clean Hydrogen at the Heart of our Clean Economy?
Gain valuable insights, connect with industry experts and explore potential business opportunities.
This is the third event in a three-part series focusing on key climate technologies where the Toronto region is poised to lead. We don’t want to be just resource providers or a ‘branch plant economy’; we want to be a place where innovations are developed, commercialized and deployed. Each event in this series will spotlight a climate technology where Ontario has a competitive edge: batteries & critical minerals, hydrogen, and small modular nuclear reactors. Join us as we bring together industry experts, policymakers and academics to explore strategies for economic growth and scaling within our region.
