While renewables activity in Alberta virtually disappeared in 2025, Nova Scotia emerged as Canada’s most active market for corporate clean energy deals, according to a new report from Business Renewables Centre-Canada. It’s the first time a province outside Alberta has led in corporate energy deals.

“We went from an average of about 1,000 megawatts of deals per year down to only five megawatts last year. That’s hundreds of millions of dollars every year and thousands of construction jobs,” Mr. Dye said in an interview.
Corporate backing for renewables has dried up as a result of policy changes, Mr. Dye said, which has also hurtthe pipeline for future projects.

Two other areas of policy are still being overhauled – around the province’s new restructured energy market (REM) and transmission rules – and the report warned that even clarity around where they are headed might prove insufficient to restore investment and commercial confidence in Alberta’s renewable electricity market.
“The precedent will have been set: if the Alberta government disregards the investment expectations it fostered with prior policy and market constructs, it could do so again with the new REM and transmission policy framework.”

Three cheers for ideological driven stupidity. I'm sure the uncertainty of a ####ing separation referendum is gonna help all sorts of industries.
Y'all prattle on about a decade of lost Canada because of Trudeau, but have nothing to say on this stupid ####.
