University of Alberta's Multi-Faceted Approach to Sustainable Energy Innovation
Key Ideas
  • The University of Alberta's CANZES initiative focuses on five research themes to drive CO2 emissions reductions, including hydrogen, carbon capture, and critical minerals.
  • Investments in Alberta's hydrogen economy and carbon capture technologies aim to support decarbonization efforts and energy leadership in Canada.
  • Efforts in resilient electrical grids, critical minerals utilization, and land and water reclamation contribute to advancing towards a low-carbon economy and sustainable energy solutions.
  • The initiative aims to accelerate the development, testing, and commercialization of new energy technologies while cultivating a skilled workforce and fostering collaboration among academia, industry, government, and community partners.
The University of Alberta is spearheading the Canadian Net-Zero Energy Solutions (CANZES) initiative, a comprehensive interdisciplinary approach to tackling pressing climate and energy challenges. This initiative, supported by significant partner commitments, focuses on driving CO2 emissions reductions through research in hydrogen, carbon capture, critical minerals, electrical grids, and land and water reclamation. Investments in Alberta's hydrogen economy and carbon capture technologies aim to propel decarbonization efforts and support sustainable energy advancements. By emphasizing areas like resilient electrical grids, critical minerals utilization, and land and water reclamation, the University aims to accelerate the transition to a low-carbon economy. Through collaboration with industry, government, and community partners, the initiative seeks to advance technologies, address key challenges, and promote economic, environmental, and social benefits. CANZES aims to expedite the development, testing, and commercialization of innovative energy solutions, ensuring Canada's leadership in sustainable energy while fostering a highly skilled workforce and collaborative partnerships.
