Canada’s Clean Technology Voice
The Canada Cleantech Alliance (CCTA) is the national voice of Canada’s clean technology sector. Founded in 2016, we bring together diverse cleantech interests with one clear mission: to accelerate Canada’s transition into a global leader in investment, innovation, and job creation—while building a strong, low-carbon economy.
Since its inception, CCTA has become the go-to source for cleantech insight, policy input, and advocacy. Through our network of thought leaders, industry associations, incubators, accelerators, and ecosystem partners, we represent the full strength and diversity of cleantech across Canada. Our board and collaborators reflect this national scope (https://canadacleantechalliance.ca).
Powered by Members & Partners
All initiatives depend on their stakeholders. We’re no different. Canada Cleantech Alliance has a solid basis of board members from Écotech Québec, OCTIA, Evok Innovations, MaRS , Sussex and RXNHUB. We also partner with ecosystem players representing sectors, regions and governments from across the country. Join us.
Tariffs and Canadian Cleantech: A Competitiveness Story
Resources for companies. Evidence for action.
The Canada–U.S. trade disruption is affecting Canadian cleantech — but not always in the ways you might expect.
A new CCTA analysis, drawing on 128 survey responses including 100 cleantech companies, finds impacts extending beyond tariffs into customer decisions, project delays, investment and supply chains.
The message from companies is clear: they aren’t simply asking for tariff relief. They’re asking for the tools to compete — including commercialization and scale-up financing, Canadian procurement, international demonstrations and support to diversify into new markets.

CCTA thanks Écotech Québec for its contribution to the development and analysis of the survey, CleanTech North for its tariff and Clean Economy Investment Tax Credit analysis, and our partners and other organizations across Canada’s cleantech ecosystem that helped share the survey through their networks and encourage participation.
