Canada is taking action to build a stronger, more secure and competitive economy by investing in made-in-Canada innovation.

Today, the Honourable Tim Hodgson, Minister of Energy and Natural Resources, announced $468,000 in funding through Natural Resources Canada’s Energy Innovation Program to support the Canadian Deep Geothermal Roadmap project, led by the Canadian Deep Geothermal Coalition (CDGC).

The Bentley Subsurface Company, and the Cascade Institute today announced a collaboration to develop a Canadian Thermal Model. This landmark national initiative will reveal Canada's deep geothermal resources and accelerate the development of renewable energy.

Can next-generation geothermal power plants solve Canada’s surging electricity needs?

Rebecca Pearce is building a model of something nobody can see: the intense heat trapped kilometres beneath Canada. It’s also a model of a better future for all.

In honour of Canada hosting the World Geothermal Congress 2026 in Calgary this week, the Manitoba Geological Survey has released the province’s first geothermal dataset. Consisting of a compilation of bottom-hole temperatures from select oil and gas wells in southwestern Manitoba.

While networked geothermal systems—which heat and cool several buildings using shared underground infrastructure and electric heat pumps—are gaining some traction in Canada, their reach has been limited by planning and regulatory systems that provide a continuing foothold for legacy gas heating systems

As Canada moves into an “Age of Electricity,” the challenge is clear: how to electrify buildings without driving up costs or straining the grid. Geothermal will play a key role. In this article, Tim Weber, Co-Founder and CEO of Diverso Energy, reflects on federal insights from the OGA conference and why geothermal needs to be understood differently.

A projected $10.6-million geothermal testing project is expected to begin north of Rocky Mountain House in late 2026.

Canada’s vast reserves of geothermal energy could power the entire country’s electrical needs many times over, yet remain untapped, with development moving at glacial speed.
