Welcome to the 2022/2023 edition of the Alberta Solar Review, a publication promoting the solar energy industry in the sunny province of Alberta.

In this issue, we hear from the Canadian Renewable Energy Association and the Alberta Renewable Energy Alliance about Alberta’s renewable energy future and the potential for growth in the province. Clean Energy Canada also provides their insight on Canada’s clean energy sector and how it will define Canada’s new energy reality.

With solar projects in various stages of planning and construction throughout the province, Bennett Jones provides some key considerations for solar engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contracts helpful to solar project developers. And we highlight the Solar Club, launched by Green Alberta Energy, an energy retailer that pays micro-generators for surplus electricity.

This issue also provides information regarding Solar Alberta’s professional training courses for those looking for opportunities to advance their skills in solar photovoltaics, renewable energy, and energy efficiency.

We hope you enjoy this edition of the Alberta Solar Review, and if you have any ideas, suggestions, or story ideas, please get in touch!
