About the Conference

The 2025 Renewables in Remote Communities Conference (RiRC2025) aims to accelerate and support an Indigenous-led transition to clean energy. This year's theme, "Empowering generational leadership for a resilient, shared climate future," emphasizes the importance of Indigenous rights and the leadership roles of youth, elders, and community leaders in the energy transition.

What to Expect

Attendees can look forward to a diverse and interactive program, including:

  • Panels and Knowledge Exchange: Learn from experts and community leaders about the clean energy transition in remote areas.

  • Regional Rooms: Discussions organized by region (British Columbia, Northwest Territories, Nunavut, and Yukon) to address local policies and actions needed to reduce diesel consumption.

  • Site Visits: Opportunities to visit renewable energy installations in the Whitehorse area, providing insights from developers and project proponents.

Registration and Participation

Regular registration is open until March 2025, with early registration recommended due to limited ticket availability. The conference will also feature an exhibition space for organizations to showcase their contributions to clean energy in remote communities. Financial support for Indigenous attendees is available to promote access and inclusion.
