SUMMARY:New Pathways to Standardization: A Western Canada Project Initiation Roundtable
DESCRIPTION:Communities spend years developing Community Energy and Emissions Plans\, climate action plans\, and economic development strategies. Yet moving these local energy projects from planning to implementation remains a critical challenge. And while much of the national conversation focuses on federal and provincial policy\, the conditions that ultimately determine whether a project moves forward exist at the local level. \nTo address this gap\, QUEST Canada is convening an expert roundtable. Bringing together practitioners\, industry\, and municipal leaders to investigate the broad\, systemic question: \n“What standardized project implementation infrastructure\, support systems\, and shared approaches\, will help the next 100 communities move energy projects from ambition to implementation\, consistently\, energy-efficiently\, and at greater scale?” \nLocation (map below):Life Sciences Innovation Hub – Innovate CalgaryUniversity of Calgary3655 36 St NW\, Calgary\, AB T2L 1Y8 \nThis roundtable is designed to be a collaborative session operating under the Chatham House Rule. To ensure open\, candid dialogue participants will: \n\nGain Peer & Expert Insights: Learn directly from other practitioners\, utility partners\, and industry experts navigating the real-world realities of the energy transition.\nIdentify Practical Solutions: Move past high-level barriers and uncover concrete\, actionable ways to improve local infrastructure project outcomes.\nExamine Economic Benefits: Explore how localized project implementation can be leveraged to maximize local job creation\, retain economic value\, and attract regional investment.\nShape Future Investments: Help co-create a stakeholder-informed framework and final summary report that will directly inform future funding\, support programs\, and ecosystem investments.\n\n			\n				View the Roundtable Program (pdf)\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				A realistic Prairies community simulation \nTo ground the conversation\, participants will use a realistic Canadian Prairies community simulation looking to initiate a net-zero related project (e.g.\, deep energy retrofits\, EV charging networks\, microgeneration)\, and then analyse the project initiation process. From this basis we’ll collectively identify challenges and opportunities\, then discuss new pathways to standardization. \n			\n				Register for the June 23 Workshop\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Designed to close the gap\, reduce the risk \nAs a community project lead\, roundtable sponsor\, or subject matter expert (i.e. project developer\, energy infrastructure developer\, financier\, or professional service provider\, etc.)\, your involvement plays an important role in supporting communities as they advance practical energy projects that generate economic development. \nCome enjoy the day focusing on knowledge sharing\, relationship building\, and hands-on collaboration between communities and experienced practitioners from across the energy ecosystem. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Experts (To-Date!)\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n					\n					\n						Sheri Young\n						Project Director – ICLEI’s ClimateInsight.ca\n					\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Bio\n				Sheri uses nature-based solution stories and evidence demonstrated by science to make life better for everyone in a changing climate.

SUMMARY:Coming to Hamilton in September – a TENs Project Accelerator Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Moving from Thermal Energy Network ambitions to cutting the ribbon on a real-world project is one of the biggest challenges facing municipalities and Indigenous communities working toward a cleaner energy future.  \nQUEST Canada’s TENs Project Accelerator Workshop is designed to bridge that gap—offering practical tools\, tailored coaching\, and direct access to funding and technical experts. The two-day workshop in Hamilton is for municipal and Indigenous community leaders and their sustainability teams across Canada who are actively dreaming about developing a local thermal energy network project. \n Whether you’re exploring district energy\, waste heat recovery\, geo-exchange\, or heat pump-based systems\, the workshop is designed to move your project closer to implementation. \nWho Should Attend? \nThis workshop is designed for Indigenous community and municipal leaders and staff members\, project developers\, energy consultants\, and utility representatives involved in: \n\nSustainable community energy initiatives\nProject planning\, financial management\, policy\, and economic development roles\n\n			\n				View the Full Two-Day Workshop Program (pdf)\n			\n				Register for the September 28-29 Workshop\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Why Attend? \nThrough hands-on sessions\, participants will advance their own community energy project concepts—refining scopes\, strengthening financial strategies\, and identifying clear next steps. You’ll also connect with clean-tech providers\, peers\, and funders who can support your goals. \nParticipants will leave with: \n\nA refined TENs project scope and clear critical path\nAn initial financial model and detailed funding strategy\nA solid plan for hiring contractors and managing project execution\nIncreased confidence to implement a thermal energy project and navigate the challenges\nA strong network of funders\, consultants\, and solution providers to support future development\n\nTravel support is available for eligible participants\, with a focus on rural and remote communities. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Host\, Keynote\, Panelists &
