Canadian Nuclear Association Partners with New Brunswick Energy Cluster to Advance Clean Energy Solutions 

September 24, 2024

The Canadian Nuclear Association (CNA) is excited to join the New Brunswick Energy Cluster (NBEC), a collaborative network dedicated to promoting clean energy innovation. This partnership underscores our mutual dedication to fostering growth and progress in the Canadian energy sector.

The NBEC’s emphasis on collaboration resonates with CNA’s core values. By partnering with industry leaders, innovators, and investors, we can accelerate the development and implementation of clean energy technologies, including advanced nuclear power.

Canada’s nuclear industry plays an integral role in achieving a clean energy future. As a reliable and carbon-free source of electricity, nuclear power helps to prevent millions of tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions each year. It also supplies essential medical isotopes and contributes to high-paying jobs across the country.

By collaborating with the NBEC, the CNA aims to utilize its nuclear expertise to:

  • Champion clean energy innovation: Pursue novel applications for nuclear power in conjunction with renewable energy solutions. 
  • Stimulate economic development: Support the establishment of new businesses and the expansion of existing ones within New Brunswick’s energy sector. 
  • Cultivate a skilled workforce: Collaborate on programs to attract and retain top talent in the clean energy field.

We are enthusiastic about the potential of this new partnership. Together, the CNA and the NBEC can contribute significantly to establishing a clean and sustainable energy future for New Brunswick and the entire nation.
