After phases of technical analysis and market assessment, the Atlantic Canada Offshore Wind Integration and Transmission Study reaches its culmination with its upcoming release of a comprehensive Roadmap and Action Plan for integrating offshore wind into Atlantic Canada's grid. Join Net Zero Atlantic, Stantec, and Energy and Environmental Economics, Inc. for a practical, forward-looking discussion focused on how Atlantic Canada can move from first-of-kind offshore wind projects toward a mature, scalable, and integrated offshore wind industry. This session will present: • Key findings from the Atlantic Canada Offshore Wind Integration and Transmission Study • Short-, medium-, and long-term actions required to enable offshore wind integration • The roles of governments, utilities, developers, and other stakeholders in advancing the sector • How regional coordination can support early projects and long-term industry growth • A live demonstration of the study's public database and interactive visual platform The Roadmap and Action Plan, along with the study's publicly available database and visual interface, will provide practical tools to support evidence-based planning, collaboration, and decision-making across the region.

The Atlantic Canada Hydrogen Supply Chain Assessment and Development Plan has been released, offering a detailed view of the region’s full hydrogen value chain and identifies priority actions to support its long-term growth. The study was conducted by Deloitte under the direction of the Atlantic Hydrogen Alliance, in partnership with Energy NL and Net Zero Atlantic. Atlantic Canada is well positioned for a clean hydrogen economy, with strong resources, industrial capacity, and access to global markets. Realizing this potential will require alignment across infrastructure, workforce development, and market demand, supported by a robust low-carbon supply chain that can attract investment, create jobs, reduce emissions, and enable both domestic and export growth. What comes next will determine how quickly Atlantic Canada moves from potential to progress. 👉 Explore the full Atlantic Canada Hydrogen Supply Chain Assessment and Development Plan: https://lnkd.in/eBbNWh52 🔍Curious about where Atlantic Canada stands in the hydrogen economy? Join the Atlantic Hydrogen Alliance, Energy NL, and Net Zero Atlantic on April 9 for a webinar featuring Deloitte’s presentation of key findings, gaps, and opportunities identified in the study. 📅Hydrogen Supply Chains in Atlantic Canada: Findings, Gaps, and Opportunities April 9, 2026 | 1:00–2:00 PM A.T.
