As Canada seeks to grow energy exports, expand domestic electricity production, and position itself as a global data centre hub, the readiness of communities to support success will be critical. The ESF Municipal Energy Dialogue 2026, hosted by Energy for a Secure Future in partnership with Resource Works, brings municipal leaders from across Canada together for focused discussion on energy, communities, and the practical factors that influence energy development. Held on the margins of the Federation of Canadian Municipalities Annual Conference in Edmonton, Alberta, on June 4-7, the dialogue focuses on how local decisions affect energy security and Canada’s ability to deliver reliable energy at home and abroad.
This important dialogue brings together municipal leaders, energy experts, and stakeholders from across the country to explore practical and forward-looking approaches to local energy planning. As municipalities continue to navigate evolving energy challenges and opportunities, this forum provides a valuable space to exchange ideas, learn from peers, and contribute to shaping reliable and affordable energy systems.
Key benefits of participating include:
- Engaging in meaningful discussions with municipal and energy sector leaders
- Learning about Canada’s plans to grow energy exports, domestic electricity supply, and data-centre capacity, and how communities can turn these opportunities into economic growth
- Sharing municipal perspectives on energy challenges and priorities
- Building connections that support collaboration and future initiatives
Come take part in this important conversation and help ensure municipal voices are represented in shaping Canada’s energy future.
