Why it matters
The funding is one of the largest federal clean-energy commitments to Alberta this year, covering wind, solar and microgrid projects that will feed power into the provincial grid and Indigenous communities. It also signals Ottawa is pressing ahead with renewables investment in a province better known for oil and gas.
