Analysis says countries can save money by switching from coal straight to renewable energies

One of the companies that had planned to build an open-pit coal mine in the Rocky Mountains has signed an agreement with an Alberta government agency to work toward converting the project to renewable energy.

Montem Resources is one of the companies considering the Alberta government's decision last month to extend a pause on coal development on the summits and eastern slopes of the Rockies.

It should be clear by now that anyone expecting North America’s oil companies to fund or finance the energy transition are going to be sorely disappointed, writes columnist Max Fawcett.

A flurry of summits this week across Dubai addressed the threat of climate change, or at least acknowledged that a pivot away from fossil fuels toward cleaner sources of power is needed to keep temperatures from rising.

The knee-jerk call for more Canadian oil and gas in the wake of Russia's invasion of Ukraine ignores our responsibility to reduce pollution and fight climate change, writes Tzeporah Berman, chair of the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty.

Morrison government’s hydrogen stretch goal of $2 a kilogram to make the fuel competitive could be reached by 2025, Hysata says.

Chris White’s PhD thesis aims to help us reduce and reuse electric vehicle batteries.

The global energy crisis sparked by Russia's invasion of Ukraine is repressurizing North America's pipeline debate — and Canada's natural resources minister says it offers one more compelling reason for Michigan to abandon its crusade against Line 5.

As Russia’s invasion of Ukraine raises questions about global energy security, Canada’s environment minister is blasting Alberta Premier Jason Kenney’s assertion Canada must “get some pipelines built” to help “defang” Russian President Vladimir Putin.

The continent has grown over-reliant on Russian gas — but Putin knows he is vulnerable to Europe cleaning up its energy sector.

Nova Scotia Power has backpedalled on its proposed fee for solar customers after a huge backlash. However, the solar community says the series of events have laid bare systematic problems faced by the industry.
