The clean technology sector represents a diverse range of solutions intended to reduce or eliminate negative ecological impacts while at the same time improving the productive and responsible use of natural resources. Clean technology refers to products, processes and services that improve on environmental performance. The use of clean technology can mean improving efficiency, mitigating the environmental risks of business activity or reducing wastes (e.g. physical waste, energy waste, emissions waste, etc.).
Newfoundland and Labrador’s economy has transitioned into a dynamic, modern and greener economy. The Government of Newfoundland and Labrador recognizes the importance of environmental stewardship and is actively exploring clean technology initiatives that support Newfoundland and Labrador businesses in the local, national and international green economies.
