Clean economy sectors like electric vehicles, batteries, and the grid itself have received about $65 billion in new investment, producing at least 26,000 direct jobs and tens of thousands more across related supply chains.<\/p>\n<p>That investment is taking place at a moment when access to electricity is central to site selection and capital allocation for new projects, adding asset value and enabling market access for new investments in tech, artificial intelligence, and mining.<\/p>\n<p>But \u201cCanada\u2019s clean electricity edge is under threat,\u201d Dunsky warns. \u201cGrid constraints, permitting delays, and interconnection uncertainty are already slowing or cancelling investments.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Canada faces those challenges in a moment of intensifying global competition, the report adds, with other jurisdictions \u201crapidly decarbonize their grids with the aim of attracting clean investment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The national electricity strategy\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/business\/energy\/canada-will-soon-release-new-electricity-nuclear-strategy-minister-says-2026-03-05\/\">has been in development<\/a>\u00a0for some time. Insiders say its release is now just days away, and it\u2019s expected to focus on east-west transmission, Indigenous leadership, and better collaboration among provinces. Earlier this month, Ontario\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theenergymix.com\/nation-building-milestone-as-10-provinces-territories-pledge-to-boost-grid-infrastructure\/\">announced<\/a>\u00a0a \u201cmajor nation-building milestone\u201d when 10 provinces and territories\u2014everyone but Quebec, Newfoundland and Labrador, and Nunavut\u2014agreed to work together on new transmission infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p>There was no official word on the national strategy\u2019s release as this story went to virtual press. But\u00a0<em>The Energy Mix<\/em>\u00a0has learned that it may appear as soon as this Wednesday or Thursday and feature federal investment in grid interties between provinces, though the form of investment\u2014through loans, grants, federal ownership, of investment tax credits\u2014remains to be seen. The strategy is expected to remain silent on the fate of the federal Clean Electricity Regulations, and it isn\u2019t clear whether it will address the role of gas-fired electricity or carbon capture and storage on the grid.<\/p>\n<p>The Dunsky report calls for long-term coordination and policy certainty across federal, provincial, and territorial governments to make permitting and grid interconnections faster and more transparent, all with the goal of accelerating the buildout of clean generation, storage, and transmission. It points to Indigenous partnerships as an element that could \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.indigenouspowercoalition.com\/\">unlock project development<\/a>\u201d, and stresses the role of demand-side solutions to \u201clower system costs, defer infrastructure, and improve reliability\u2014especially for fast-growing data centre and industrial loads.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>SHARE Public Affairs Director Jennifer Story said the consultants sought interviews with executives whose companies will need reliable supplies of green energy. \u201cThere\u2019s a growing number of investors and companies that are hearing back from regulators, hearing back from provincial decision-makers, that they\u2019re in the queue or that their needs can\u2019t be met.,\u201d she told\u00a0<em>The Energy Mix<\/em>\u00a0in an interview.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf Canada is really serious about creating new opportunities in our economy to buffer the effects of the worsening relationship with the United States, this is a really obvious place to do it,\u201d she added. \u201cWe\u2019ll certainly be looking to see whether or not [the federal electricity strategy] goes the distance to meet this need.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With net-zero commitments and carbon pricing systems in place in 10 of Canada\u2019s 11 biggest trading partners\u2014the U.S. is the outlier\u2014Story said faster buildout of a clean electricity grid could be an essential nation-building project to protect Canadian sovereignty.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt does tie in to trade strategy,\u201d she told\u00a0<em>The Mix<\/em>. \u201cSome countries and regions are imposing\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theenergymix.com\/europes-world-first-carbon-tariff-is-coming-heres-what-to-know\/\">carbon border adjustments<\/a>, for example. Responding to that reality means again demonstrating clearly that we can supply our issuers, our publicly-traded and private companies, with the clean power they need to not have those border adjustments be a barrier to market access in other parts of the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And to attract climate-aligned investment, \u201cwe also need to demonstrate to those investors that the companies they\u2019re considering, the projects they\u2019re considering, have not just green but also reliable, affordable, consistently available clean power.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>This article was published by The Energy Mix on March 30, 2026.
