According to GHD's Marie-France Gravelle and Tej Gidda, although Canada benefits from a wealth of hydropower, wind, and solar potential, it faces unique challenges in integrating these renewable sources into a reliable, nationwide grid.

According to GHD's Marie-France Gravelle and Tej Gidda, although Canada benefits from a wealth of hydropower, wind, and solar potential, it faces unique challenges in integrating these renewable sources into a reliable, nationwide grid. Canada’s energy resources are unevenly distributed, with renewable-rich provinces needing to support regions still dependent on fossil fuels. Additionally, Canada must balance its domestic energy needs with its growing exports, particularly during periods of peak demand, such as cold winters. Ensuring grid stability and modernizing infrastructure are essential for Canada to meet this rising demand while maintaining energy security.
