BVGEC is partnering with the Calgary Climate Hub!
Bow Valley Green Energy Cooperative
The Bow Valley Green Energy Cooperative (BVGEC) is delighted to announce its new partnership with the Calgary Climate Hub. This partnership marks a significant step forward in promoting community-driven renewable energy initiatives across Alberta.
The Calgary Climate Hub is a volunteer-driven organization committed to engaging citizens and advocating for effective climate policies in Calgary. Their initiatives include organizing events, workshops, and campaigns to raise awareness and drive action on climate change.
The collaboration between the Calgary Climate Hub and BVGEC signifies a unified effort to promote renewable energy and community involvement in climate initiatives. By leveraging BVGEC's expertise in community-owned energy projects and the Climate Hub's platform for public engagement, this partnership aims to inspire collective action toward a sustainable and resilient future for Calgary and the Bow Valley region.
One of the first collaborative efforts included the return of Community Climate Conversations, organized by the Calgary Climate Hub, after a five-year hiatus. These conversations provide a platform for community members to discuss climate-related topics and explore actionable solutions. The inaugural event occurred on February 25th, 2025, at the Bridgeland-Riverside Community Association.
Of specific note is the CCH Clean Electricity Transition (CET) Campaign - Campaign Goal: By August 2025, Enmax will have committed to a phased transition away from its existing natural gas assets to renewable sources, with a firm target, such as 1GW by 2030.
