The Pembina Institute has worked with over 50 Aboriginal communities on energy planning. Aboriginal Energy Alternatives provides insights into lessons learned through this experience, and outlines the basics of community energy planning, options for generating energy locally, and ways to reduce energy consumption in communities.
To help ensure Nova Scotia and Canada benefit from a sustainable marine renewable energy industry over the longer term, this study identifies the suite of applicable funding and financial support mechanisms used in different jurisdictions around the world, recommends a combination that may be suitable for the Nova Scotia context and presents the local entities that could administer such funding and financial supports for local tidal energy development.
Created in 2011, the Aboriginal Scholarship offers a $1500 entrance scholarship to a graduating Aboriginal high school student. (Students electing a one year gap will be considered)

Located in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, home to world-class natural resources and Canada’s most aggressive climate change laws, CSEE is positioned not simply to contribute to this research, but to lead it.
Our region has one of the most diverse mixes of energy in North America and we stand on the threshold of a market that is 14 times larger than we have in our four provinces. The energy sector will lead Atlantic Canada in opening new markets, developing new technologies, and welcoming new people to the region. It is an investment in our communities and our people that will pay dividends for years to come.
