In early November, the ELC published Gaining Steam: A Regulatory and Policy Framework for Geothermal Energy Development in Alberta. This publication consists of an executive summary and 4 modules:
- Executive Summary
- Module 1: Geothermal Energy and Alberta’s Current Regulatory Landscape
- Module 2: The Missing Pieces in Alberta’s Regulatory Landscape and a Path Forward for Geothermal Energy Development
- Module 3: Policy Support Mechanisms for Geothermal Energy Development in Alberta
- Module 4: Regulation of Geothermal Energy in Other Jurisdictions
In this webinar, we will review the missing pieces in Alberta’s current geothermal regulatory framework. As well, we will look at Alberta’s newly proposed Bill 36: The Geothermal Resource Development Act and see how it compares to our recommendations.
After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar.
Spots are limited to the first 100 registrants. The session will be recorded and will be made available after December 15 on our website.
