Minister of Environment and Protected Areas Rebecca Schulz will travel to Germany to promote Alberta’s emissions reduction technologies and responsible energy sector, say government officials.
The mission to Germany will take place Aug. 22-27. As part of the mission, officials say Minister Schulz will join German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and other officials to celebrate the inauguration of Germany’s first Eavor-Loop™ project, supported by made-in-Alberta geothermal technology. Created by Calgary-based Eavor Technologies, provincial officials say the Eavor-Loop™ represents the world’s first viable form of scalable, emissions-free and baseload geothermal energy.
“Alberta has the innovation, expertise and entrepreneurial spirit needed to help power the world for decades to come. I look forward to strengthening relationships with key partners and celebrating a successful geothermal project in Germany made possible thanks to made-in-Alberta technology. The world needs more secure, reliable energy, and Alberta can help deliver it,” says Rebecca Schulz, Minister of Environment and Protected Areas.
The province says Minister Schulz will also attend meetings with government officials and industry representatives to discuss continued opportunities in Alberta’s geothermal sector and to promote the province’s Emissions Reduction and Energy Development Plan and responsible energy production.
