CanSIA Mission and Vision

Mission

A national, not-for-profit association, CanSIA works on behalf of its members to facilitate and promote the responsible and sustainable growth of solar energy across Canada. CanSIA provides education and networking opportunities for members, researches and develops renewable energy policy options for different levels of Canada’s government and implements a broad range of communications activities on solar energy.

Vision

​CanSIA actively represents the Canadian solar industry by promoting the unique economic, environmental and technology benefits of solar energy in Canada. Our goal is to be the source of trustworthy information about solar energy and its growing importance to Canadian energy consumers.

Strategic Direction

​2015 signaled an era of change as profound as any the Association has experienced since its formation.  CanSIA has adopted a new business model which will strengthen the Association’s position as the trusted voice of the Canadian solar industry and ensure solar energy plays an integral part of Canada’s diversified energy mix. We are responding directly to members’ requests and CanSIA is now devoting more resources to what matters most – having their industry association be the driving force in government relations, policy and regulatory advocacy, research and information, and communications, targeting the objective of growing solar markets across Canada.
