Marine Renewables Canada (MRC), with funding support from the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency (ACOA), Nova Scotia Department of Natural Resources and Renewables and Prince Edward Island Energy Corp., is requesting proposals from third-party consultants to lead a project that will help support an overall goal of developing a Canadian offshore wind supply chain and further growing capacity in the onshore wind supply chain to support the installation of future offshore and onshore wind projects.

Atlantic Canada’s offshore and onshore wind represent a significant potential renewable energy resource. The establishment of a capable and competitive supply chain to support this industry’s requirements will be a critical component of ensuring sustainable growth of offshore and onshore wind in Canada. 

This important project will help industry, suppliers, governments, and other stakeholders strategically plan how to invest in local resources to de-risk future deployments, establish a sustainable and self-sufficient industry, and ultimately realize the significant benefits that can be achieved through an offshore and onshore wind industry in Atlantic Canada.

Submission deadline is July 12, 2024.
