Session Summary
How can Canada’s construction industry build more while emitting less? Nine of Canada’s largest construction companies have partnered with the Transition Accelerator to explore that question in Growing and Greening Canadian Construction, a landmark report outlining five high-impact actions that can significantly reduce industry-wide jobsite emissions while potentially improving efficiency and affordability.
This panel connects those five actions to major projects, spotlighting procurement levers, grid-first site setups, and near-term fuel and equipment shifts that cut emissions while maintaining operational excellence. The discussion will feature a presentation from Anya Barkan (Multiplex), Aaron MacLean (EllisDon), and Prabh Banga (Aecon), followed by an audience Q&A.
More About the Report
Construction is central to Canada’s growth. Over the next five years, millions of new homes will be built across the country, alongside hundreds of billions of dollars invested in transit, healthcare, and industrial infrastructure.
For Growing and Greening Canadian Construction: Five Ways for Canadian Construction Companies to Build More and Emit Less, nine of Canada’s largest general contractors — Aecon, Bird, Chandos, EllisDon, Graham, Ledcor, Multiplex, PCL, and Pomerleau — shared real-world operational data from more than 600 projects nationwide.
Grounded in rigorous analysis and unprecedented collaboration, the report identifies practical actions that reduce emissions while supporting the industry’s core priorities: efficiency, affordability, and delivery at scale. Read the full report
