Bruce County and Saugeen First Nation have formed a new partnership in energy innovation.
It's designed to advance hydrogen storage infrastructure.
Bruce County and the surrounding region have underground geologic formations which are capable of storing large amounts of hydrogen. This offers significant energy storage potential.
"Working with Bruce County on clean energy initiatives in our territorial lands and supports renewable energy options that are carbon-free while developing next-generation skills growth and job creation across multiple industries like transportation, heating and agriculture. This is something we are proud to support and that makes sense for our future", said Chief Lester Anoquot of Saugeen FirstNation.
"Hydrogen has numerous game-changing power-to-fuel applications that, if embraced", said Warden Mitch Twolan, "can lead the transition away from fossil fuels. This technology has the potential to provide solutions to use electrical energy from renewable sources like nuclear, to increase economic activity throughout Canada."
