The Community Energy Association accelerates bold action by local governments and Indigenous communities related to climate and energy. CEA grew from a committee established by the Government of BC and the Union of BC Municipalities in the 1990s and was incorporated as a non-profit in 2003.Today, CEA’s members and staff live in communities large and small and bring their collective expertise, experiences, commitment to Truth and Reconciliation, and passion to help lower local emissions and build healthy, resilient communities.CEA hosts and facilitates events related to the topic areas most relevant to lowering emissions and building resilience in communities – the Built Environment and Transportation. Whether it is events to foster collaboration and networking, training related to high performance buildings, education on home energy retrofit practices, or showcasing zero emissions vehicles, CEA's events integrate proven technical solutions with local circumstances and context.
