Shauna Kelly (she/her) is based in Burin, Newfoundland and Labrador, and is Sierra Club Canada Foundation's Offshore Wind Coordinator for Newfoundland and Labrador.Facilitated by Shauna Kelly, our Burin-based Energy Coordinator, Let’s Talk Renewable Energy brings people together to discuss practical ways they can be part of renewable energy development in NL.

These conversations will gather local knowledge and experiences to better understand how different communities want to participate in shaping a sustainable and inclusive energy future. Together, we’ll identify priorities, concerns, barriers, and opportunities to help strengthen local leadership, support community involvement, and help ensure that renewable energy development delivers meaningful benefits across the province.

We invite you to participate in this project
