Australia and Canada have formalised a new Clean Energy Partnership. The Partnership will help both countries work together on climate action and a move toward net zero.
Minister for Climate Change and Energy Chris Bowen and Canada's High Commissioner to Australia H.E. Dr Julie Sunday signed the Partnership earlier this week.
This Partnership sees Australia and Canada working together on shared convictions. It aims to seize the economic opportunities of clean energy, and face-up to the urgent global challenge of climate change.
It reaffirms our dedication to the Paris Agreement and ongoing work under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change.
The partnership focuses on 5 key areas:
- trade, investment, standards and supply chains
- grid modernisation and resilience
- energy and hard-to-abate sectors
- indigenous engagement
- climate change adaptation.
We will work with Canada's Department of Natural Resources to deliver on the Partnership's goals.
