The Future is Bright
In an age of globalization, it’s easy to forget what’s in your own backyard. Clean and sustainable energy is an international goal; it’s also a goal that’s playing out in a specific way in Canada. Thanks to our large and diverse geography, Canada has access to vast natural resources that can fuel our lives.
WATT Renewables works with communities, businesses, and individuals across the globe, but we’re also dedicated to moving Canada’s clean energy goals forward. We’re headquartered in Alberta, Canada, where we get to enjoy the beauty of long-stretching plains and the Rocky Mountains. Preserving these places and ensuring that we can sustainably enjoy them while powering our lives for generations to come is one of our most ambitious goals.
Clean Energy in Canada & Alberta
Canada is a leader in clean, renewable energy. According to Natural Resources Canada, 17.3% of the total energy produced in Canada came from renewable sources in 2017, with major growth happening in all areas. These provide heat, electricity, and fuel for Canadians’ homes and lives. In 2019, 67% of electricity production came from renewable resources.
Our Canadian projects are close to our hearts and homes. We currently have projects underway in Ontario and Alberta, with a balance of residential and commercial/industrial scopes, and ranging from two to 10,000 kW capacities. We plan to add many more Canadian-based projects in the coming months and years as our team and operations continue to grow.
How We’re Doing Our Part in Canada & Alberta
Sustainability is a term that can apply to many different aspects of what we do at WATT Renewables. It includes providing clean, renewable energy solutions, but it goes well beyond that to look at how we can create sustainability for future generations in many areas of our lives, including employment, a healthy economic system, and community building.
Reducing Harmful Emissions & Greenhouse Gases
One of the primary goals of our technology is to provide clean energy that reduces emissions and contributes to the health and wellbeing of the planet, our local environments, and people. Our solutions use a combination of renewable energy sources and technology to provide energy that doesn’t impact the environment.
We also know there’s an important place for non-renewable energy solutions in the Canadian energy sector, and we support those initiatives, often working side-by-side with people in the oil and gas industry and other areas in the energy sector.
Bringing Reliable & Affordable Energy to Regions & People
Affordability is an important aspect of building sustainable communities and businesses. Canada has a vast amount of territory and people spread across it, which is one reason why our solutions work so well; they can be delivered anywhere. We believe that by providing people with stable solutions, we can help them stabilize their futures.
Providing Jobs for Canadians & Albertans
As the statistics for the use of renewable energy sources in Canada grow, employment numbers in this sector grow as well. According to Clean Energy Canada, jobs in the sustainable energy sector are growing 60% faster than average growth in other sectors. We’re dedicated to providing high-quality jobs wherever our projects take us, and with an eye to diversity.
Powering Businesses & the Economy
Canadian businesses are dear to our hearts. As a Canadian-based business, we think it’s important to improve the long-term sustainability of businesses of all sizes through reliable energy solutions that help Canadians get the products and services they need. Our industrial and commercial applications use advanced battery back-up technology to make sure that even when the power goes out, the lights stay on.
Collaborative Approaches to New Solutions
Creating sustainable energy solutions in Canada and beyond is a sizeable goal, which is why we know we can’t accomplish it alone. We’re always working to develop strategic partnerships that will move our sustainable development goals forward. We think it’s important to focus on our strengths while partnering with others with diverse abilities who share our mindset and goals.
Building Capacity
It’s easy to take for granted that there is always energy available to power our lives. But for some people and communities, that’s not the case. One of our main mandates is “capacity building,” which encompasses giving people the tools and skills they need to change their future outcomes. Energy is a basic component of this; by providing people with reliable and affordable energy sources, decent work, and bringing communities together to find solutions, we can change the trajectory of the lives of Canadians.
Bringing Investment Opportunities to Canadians
It’s incredible to see how many Canadians share our vision of a sustainable future. We’re always looking for partners to support renewable energy initiatives in Canada and beyond. Our investors help support new and ongoing projects, including the development of advanced technology.
It All Starts with Energy
Energy is what powers people. We understand how our actions impact the social environment as well as the natural environment. Our full range of sustainability goals extends to reducing poverty and hunger, gender equality, clean water and sanitation, and responsible production and consumption.
