Indigenous Power Coalition demands leadership in Canada’s grid expansion, citing success in clean energy projects and urging federal prioritization.
A newly formed First Nations-led group, the Indigenous Power Coalition, is pushing to lead Canada’s interprovincial electricity grid expansion, aiming to shift from consultation to ownership and control in major energy projects.
Led by Cole Sayers, also known as Kwatuuma, the coalition highlights Indigenous communities’ growing role in clean energy, with nine of ten recent power projects in British Columbia featuring Indigenous majority ownership.
The federal government sees the grid overhaul as a historic infrastructure challenge, potentially larger than the Canadian Pacific Railway, and a Natural Resources Canada report calls for doubling or tripling investment by 2050.
The coalition seeks to reduce project risks by leveraging Indigenous expertise, collaboration, and on-the-ground knowledge, urging the federal government to prioritize Indigenous leadership in its upcoming electricity strategy.
