Additional funding for EMH is provided through the Trottier and Ivey Foundations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Working together over the next four years, academics and industry experts will improve access to energy models, data and analytical tools so governments and stakeholders can better understand the implications of different pathways to decarbonization and energy sustainability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe Energy Modelling Hub serves as an independent enabler and capacity builder in Canada,\u201d says Winfield, who also co-chairs EUC\u2019s Sustainable Energy Initiative. \u201cIts work focuses on connecting researchers and decision-makers, supporting open-source tools, improving access to data and providing opportunities for training and knowledge sharing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Long-term planning, he says, will look at how to decarbonize energy systems while ensuring affordability and advancing sustainability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>EMH\u2019s current work includes exploring the potential roles of connections between provincial electricity grids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Contributing as York\u2019s representative on the EMH executive committee, Winfield will help guide the strategic direction of the hub. Drawing on his extensive research on climate change, energy sustainability, and environment and energy law and policy, he will be part of a national effort to \u201cadvance the transition in the direction of sustainable energy systems.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2023, Winfield co-edited <em>Sustainable Energy Transitions in Canada<\/em> (UBC Press) exploring the technical, economic, political and policy dimensions of decarbonization and energy transitions. Winfield\u2019s work with EMH builds on his participation research networks around energy storage, smart grids, distributed energy resources and community energy planning, He is currently co-editing <em>Carbon Federalism: Canadian Climate Governance in a Disrupted World<\/em> for the University of Toronto Press.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The December 2025 funding announcement builds on previous $5 million federal support for EMH and strengthen Canada\u2019s momentum towards net-zero and decarbonizing its energy systems.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><b>SDG Month feature>>
