About

The Municipal Climate Change Action Centre was founded in 2009 as a collaborative initiative of Alberta Municipalities, Rural Municipalities of Alberta and the Government of Alberta.

Our mission 

The Municipal Climate Change Action Centre delivers funding, technical assistance, and education to help Alberta municipalities, school authorities, and community related organizations advance actions that lower energy costs, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and improve climate resilience.

Participating in our award-winning programs makes sense. We have substantially grown our service offerings and opportunities for participants to save money and reduce their environmental impact. It’s a win-win.
