The Urgency: Building Resilience, Closing the Energy Gap
Across Canada, Indigenous communities are at the frontlines of climate change: rising floods, shifting seasons, wildfire threats, and energy insecurity. At the same time, Nations are driving solutions — with 190+ Indigenous-led renewable energy projects already in place.
But too many projects stall due to fragmented governance, limited local capacity, and short-term funding. The result? Missed opportunities for clean power, lower costs, and stronger sovereignty.
The Solution: Indigenous-Led Project Management
Indigenous Project Management Solutions (IPMS) ensures clean energy and climate projects are delivered with strength and continuity.
We walk with Nations to:
- Capacity → Train local project leaders in advanced planning, risk management, and PMP® certification.
- Continuity → Establish governance systems, PMOs, and policies that sustain long-term clean energy strategies.
- Community → Connect energy and climate project leaders across Canada through webinars and peer learning circles.
Each renewable project reduces reliance on external providers and creates jobs, procurement opportunities, and long-term Nation revenues.
Proof: Energy & Climate Projects in Action
For over two decades, IPMS has partnered with Nations on clean energy and climate resilience:
- T’Souke Nation (BC): Advanced solar projects and economic development initiatives with project management support.
- Jean Marie River First Nation (NWT): Delivered salmon resiliency and cultural restoration projects tied to climate impacts.
- Northern Nations: Guided source water and land-use planning projects linked to resilience and adaptation.
“This advanced workshop prepared our team to take on a multi-million-dollar clean energy project. We now have the tools to manage timelines, budgets, and partnerships with confidence.” — Senior Project Manager, BC First Nation
Why Clean Energy & Climate Projects Matter
Energy Security:
Locally managed renewable power reduces reliance on external grids.
Climate Resilience:
Strong governance ensures communities adapt to floods, fires, and shifting environments.
Economic Growth:
Clean energy projects generate jobs, procurement contracts, and revenues that stay in the Nation.
Sovereignty:
Control of energy systems means control of community futures.
