CanWEA - Opportunities in Canada’s Wind Energy Supply and Value Chains

Wind energy represents a major industrial development opportunity for Canada. Between now and 2020 it is estimated that $1 trillion will be invested in new wind energy facilities worldwide and that more than 1.75 million jobs will be created in this rapidly growing industry. This has created a strong demand for wind turbines and their components and manufacturers have been challenged to keep up. In addition, the wind energy industry has a strong demand for a broad range of services in areas like construction, transportation, steel fabrication, engineering, operations and maintenance and many more.

Developed in collaboration with Industry Canada, this two day national event will create an opportunity for companies to learn more about the growing Canadian wind energy market.

The seminar will provide:

- A presentation of the wind energy market in Canada and North America and its future growth prospects
- An overview of wind turbine technology and the wind energy supply and value chains
- An examination of opportunities in the wind energy supply and value chains for Canadian companies
- Case studies of efforts to build wind energy supply and value chains in Canada and North America
- Case studies of companies that have successfully entered the wind energy supply and value chains in Canada
- Networking opportunities with wind turbine manufacturers and wind energy industry
representatives to learn more about specific opportunities for your company in the wind energy supply/value chains
