The Climate Positive Energy team and CPE Graduate Students and PDF advisory committee had the opportunity to attend Collision 2022 last week at the Enercare center in downtown Toronto. Representing U of T, the CPE team connected with local and international companies, start-ups, and organizations on sustainability topics. The Collision conference is dubbed the “Olympics of tech”, and the CPE team learned from the pros in clean-tech and sustainability; attending talks on corporate sustainability, youth climate action, ethical tech development, micro-mobility and much more. Are you a CPE student member and want support in attending conferences like Collision? Contact us to discuss opportunities like this one!

Climate Positive Energy has integrated into the Lawson Climate Institute.

Integration of the Climate Positive Energy Initiative (CPE) into the Lawson Climate Institute (LCI) represents a strategic evolution that amplifies University of Toronto’s collective impact on climate solutions. CPE's established expertise in sustainable energy research and innovation becomes a cornerstone of the Lawson Climate Institute's comprehensive mandate to address the climate crisis through technology, policy, and education.

Existing and ongoing grants, research projects, partnerships, and other activity under Climate Positive Energy will continue uninterrupted and will transition to operate under the Lawson Climate Institute brand in the coming months.
