Assessing Net-Zero Electricity Supply and Demand Models in the Atlantic Loop

Nova Scotia and New Brunswick are the only remaining coal-burning provinces in Atlantic Canada and we need to set a path for decarbonization to ensure people and the environment are safeguarded against the harmful impacts of fossil fuel use. Several technological pathways exist to achieve our goal to decarbonize by 2035. However, emerging policy highlights the need for a more open, robust and collaborative landscape to ensure a fast and fair transition to clean energy that leaves no one behind.

This report showcases clean electricity supply scenarios and demonstrates possible pathways to decarbonize the Atlantic region by 2050.
