Trends & growth opportunities in the industry: focus on education & training
What if our industry became a true driver of transformation? Let’s explore its real potential in the energy transition and its impact on building a sustainable future.
The climate crisis calls for bold action and renewable energy is leading the way. It’s not only transforming how we produce energy, but also how we fund this shift. While institutional investments help drive the transition, it’s alternative financing solutions, online lending platforms, decentralized models, inclusive tools, that are turning projects into reality, faster, closer to home, and with real impact.
A rapidly growing sector
In 2022, global investments in renewable energy surpassed $500 billion, according to IRENA. What’s evolving now is the who, how, and why behind the funding. In Canada, this shift is tangible: between 2019 and 2024, wind, solar, and energy storage capacity grew by 46%, reaching 24 GW. This momentum reflects the combined force of innovation, a growing commitment to change, and financial models that better fit today’s needs.
Discover how these new lending solutions are fueling sustainable development through concrete, inspiring projects across Canada:
1
Canada greener homes loan program
With a budget of $4.4 billion, this program enables Canadians to finance energy-efficient home upgrades through interest-free loans of up to $40,000. Whether it’s solar panels, energy storage systems, or replacing outdated appliances, this initiative is making green technology more accessible, proving that smart financing can turn ideas into real impact.

Clean energy projects in saskatchewan
In 2023, over $7 million was invested in local projects led by Indigenous communities. The result: solar panels and microgrids that strengthen energy independence. These initiatives show that alternative, decentralized financing can play a crucial role, complementing public programs and empowering communities to take the lead.

TREC – Toronto Renewable Energy Co-operative
In Toronto, this initiative allows citizens to invest directly in local solar projects through green bonds. In addition to supporting clean energy production, participants benefit from stable financial returns. It’s a strong example of a participatory, profitable, and decentralized model, one that empowers citizens to drive the transition. And it perfectly reflects the kind of approach flovver aims to make more accessible at scale.

TotalEnergies Invests in Canadian Renewables
Even major players are stepping in: in 2025, TotalEnergies acquired nearly 1 GW of wind and solar projects in Canada, including a 184 MW solar project in Alberta. Moves like this confirm the growing local and international interest in Canada’s rapidly expanding renewable energy market, and highlight how more agile models can thrive alongside traditional investments.
By combining financial innovation with ecological commitment, we can strive to build a more sustainable future, one project at a time. Join us in this rewarding journey!
