25 years ago, a group of Gasp\u00e9sie players joined forces around a common conviction: that a different energy future was possible. It was from this collective vision that Nergica was born - a community-driven vehicle to structure, develop and propel an emerging industry. At a time when wind energy was still a matter of doubt, they chose to believe in it. Together.<\/p>\n
Since then, we've stood the test of time, overcoming uncertainties and accompanying the beginnings of a still-fragile industry. With perseverance and steadfastness, we have contributed to building, structuring and growing a sector that is now unavoidable. Today, we look back with pride. For 25 years, Nergica has been a reliable player, a strategic ally and a focal point for players in the sector. We have forged links, pooled expertise and contributed to the emergence of a strong, innovative and forward-looking industry. We were there at the beginning. We're still here today. And we will continue to be.<\/p>\n
1986<\/strong> Over the years, Nergica has established itself as much more than just a center of expertise. The organization has evolved with the times, developing a wide range of expertise supported by committed experts. Nergica's recognized expertise in cold climates, its numerous research projects and its unique North American testing facility make it both a technical leader and an organization firmly rooted in action.<\/p>\n But Nergica's contribution is not limited to its achievements. The organization has played a structuring role in the energy ecosystem, becoming a real driver of development for the industry. It acts as a springboard for emerging players, a catalyst for meetings and an integration facilitator for talents and organizations alike. By creating lasting links between innovation, territory and industry, Nergica has contributed to structuring the sector and fostering dialogue between its various players. This mission takes shape in particular through its Colloque, a flagship event held since 2006. Over the past 25 years, the Colloquium has generated between 2,500 and 3,500 formal business meetings, testifying to its tangible impact on the sector's development.<\/p>\n Today, 25 years later, our commitment remains intact. While wind power marked our beginnings, our action now extends to new avenues, notably solar power, actively contributing to the evolution and diversification of renewable energies. Because building the future of energy is above all a question of vision, confidence... and consistency. And the story doesn't end here. We're already on the road to new years of success, driven by ambitious projects including our new solar-positive building, a concrete symbol of the future we're helping to build, starting today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Twenty-five years ago, stakeholders in the Gasp\u00e9 Peninsula joined forces around a shared conviction: that a different energy future was possible.
