Canada is entering a defining energy moment. As global demand rises and energy security becomes a top economic priority, Canada has the talent, technology, and resources to lead. But leadership requires action.
The Green Ribbon Panel is relaunching with a bold new mandate: to advance practical policy solutions that strengthen Canada’s energy security and economic resilience. At its core is a focus on nuclear and other made-in-Canada clean energy technologies that can position the country as a global energy leader.
Originally established to shape the clean energy conversation, the Panel is relaunching at a critical moment. Geopolitical volatility, supply chain shifts, and the growing urgency of decarbonization are redefining the priorities for governments, industries, and investors alike.
This event will unveil its renewed mission and guiding principles, aligning Canada’s energy advantage with long-term security, innovation, and growth.
Join business, energy, and policy leaders for a focused, solutions-driven discussion on where Canada goes next — and what it will take to get there.
