Energy Storage for Alberta

Supporting the energy transition in Alberta by providing innovative energy storage solutions

Supporting the energy transition in Alberta

Alberta’s electricity system is changing rapidly as it transitions from a dependence on coal-fired power generation to other sources including wind and solar power. The energy transition has impacted the reliability of Alberta’s electricity grid.

A reliable electricity supply is essential for our economy. Through the energy transition we face two major challenges: consistently aligning supply with demand, when some of that supply is intermittent, and ensuring the stability of the grid itself by maintaining enough of a property known as inertia.

Energy storage provides solutions for both challenges and has an important and growing role to play in the Alberta electricity system.


Alberta is challenged to supply reliable and affordable electricity to Albertans and to industry. Evolve’s energy storage projects will help meet this challenge.
