“On behalf of CanREA, I want to thank the FNPA’s President and CEO, Guy Lonechild, and the whole FNPA team for being such gracious and welcoming hosts. We are thrilled to be presented with this meaningful award,” said Erwin Heuck, who accepted the award in his role as CanREA’s Director for Saskatchewan.

“It is an honour and a privilege for CanREA to have the opportunity to support Indigenous-led capacity building around sustainability and energy security, especially in Northern and remote communities across the country,” said Heuck.

“Indigenous-led projects will drive the future of renewable energy and energy storage in Canada. As an industry, we are just getting started.”
