NB-PEI Municipal Working Group Meeting: Economic Impact of New Brunswick Community Energy Plans

The New Brunswick & Prince Edward Island Municipal Working Group is a resource for municipalities engaged in community energy and emissions planning, partnership-building and Smart Energy projects to share their experiences, lessons learned and transfer knowledge about best practices.

In our June 2023 working group meeting, Rob Kerr, Senior Associate at QUEST Canada, provided an overview of the recently released report, “Economic Impact of New Brunswick Community Energy Plans”.

Sitansisk is a vital part of New Brunswick’s Capital City of Fredericton and is located next to the Wolastoq (also known as the Saint John River) on approximately 125.8 plus one hectares of land; a mere fraction of the Wolastoqiyik traditional unceded ancestral territory.

Municipal District of St. Stephen Accelerator Program

La ville de St. Stephen est située dans le comté de Charlotte, sur les rives de la rivière Sainte-Croix, et compte une population de 4 415 personnes. Elle se trouve à proximité de la frontière américaine, de Saint John et de Fredericton. Cette ville est surnommée la « petite ville chocolatée du Canada » en raison de son histoire : les frères Ganong y ont fondé leur épicerie en 1873, qui deviendrait plus tard une grande entreprise chocolatière.
