Trade and Invest British Columbia

Clean Energy

British Columbia has a wealth of clean energy sources. Ninety per cent of our total electricity generation is already clean or renewable and we are looking to new resources, including wind, solar and tidal energy.

British Columbia is a recognized world centre for developing and using hydrogen and fuel cells as a clean energy solution. Hydrogen and fuel cell products are being tested and used commercially in materials handling, backup power, portable electronics, fuelling infrastructure and transit bus applications. Find out more about B.C.’s hydrogen fuel cell competitive advantages.

The province has the largest warehouse of bio-energy fuel sources in the world. This includes mountain pine beetle timber and over half of Canada's biomass electricity production capacity is located in British Columbia.

Find out more about British Columbia’s clean energy opportunities at: the British Columbia Environment Industry Association, the British Columbia Bioenergy Network, the Canadian Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Association, and the British Columbia Sustainable Energy Association.
