More than 5,000 attendees, over 100 exhibiting companies and representatives from more than 50 countries are expected to participate in the fifth Carbon Capture Canada, taking place from September 15-17 at the Edmonton Convention Centre in Alberta, Canada.
The event arrives at a time when Canada’s carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) sector is entering a critical execution window, with major policy and commercial decisions taking shape.
Following the July 2, 2026, announcement of a trilateral memorandum of understanding (MOU) between Canada, Alberta and the Oil Sands Alliance on the Pathways carbon capture project, the sector has moved beyond years of open-ended policy uncertainty toward a period focused on execution, commercial structuring and investment decisions.
“The timing of this year’s convention could not be better,” says Nick Samain, Senior Vice-President, dmg events.
“We’re meeting in September, directly between July’s Pathways MOU and the definitive decisions expected this fall, and against the backdrop of a real resurgence in new projects across Canada’s energy sector.”
The convention will showcase emerging technologies while fostering collaboration, investment and knowledge sharing across the CCUS value chain.
The strategic conference will feature more than 150 speakers from across government, industry and academia, offering insights into the realities shaping the future of CCUS.
Featured speakers include Danielle Smith, Premier, Government of Alberta; Frank Des Rosiers, Assistant Deputy Minister, Energy Efficiency and Technology Sector, Natural Resources Canada (NRCan); Purnomo Yusgiantoro, Special Advisor to the President for Energy, Government of Indonesia; Kendall Dilling, President, Oil Sands Alliance; Alex Petre, CEO Officer, Deep Sky; and Chana Martineau, CEO, Alberta Indigenous Opportunities Corporation.
Beyond the conference, attendees can explore a trade exhibition showcasing the latest technologies, products and services from across the CCUS value chain, alongside technical conference sessions, networking opportunities and programming connecting project developers, policymakers, investors and technology providers.
