Decarbonization is no longer an abstract future commitment. It is driving policy across Canada as we work towards a net zero future. At Enfinite, we believe existing infrastructure cannot be immediately discarded to realize this goal, and we cannot pursue strategies that make energy unaffordable and unreliable for Canadians. With us, disruption doesn’t need to be disruptive. By making the journey to net zero a more seamless transition, Enfinite is powering progress.

Headquartered in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, Enfinite is the largest owner and operator of battery storage projects in Canada and a leader in the development of energy storage solutions supporting jurisdictions across Canada as we work towards a net zero future.
