Experts and research
We have the expertise to solve energy-related problems
We are advancing the technologies and clean energy systems that families, businesses and communities can rely upon today and for the future. Through research, testing and commercialization, we are advancing technologies and systems to decarbonize the energy that heats our homes, fuels our transportation and powers our lives. Through engineering, science and other interdisciplinary education and work-integrated learning programs, we are training the talent and building the knowledge necessary to meet the scale and speed of innovation necessary. And, we are helping communities, companies and policy makers make decisions to address climate change, eliminate energy poverty, and build an earth-friendly future that benefits everyone.
We focus energy research and expertise on four areas:
Clean energy technologies
Powering a carbon-free world with hydro, nuclear, solar, wind, geothermal and other low-carbon energy technologies
Energy in our lives
Bringing energy into our transportation, buildings, services and industry through electrification and clean fuels.
Sustainable and effective
Making energy cleaner, safer and people-centred through advanced manufacturing, robotics, data and digital solutions, artificial intelligence, risk assessment and sustainable practices.
Energy labs, centres and institutes
Ontario Tech’s energy-related research labs, centres and institutes provide a bridge between expertise, facilities and the world that needs clean energy solutions.
