The Canadian Gas Association (CGA) is hosting the International Gas Research Conference – IGRC2024 - in Banff, Alberta.
About us
The Canadian Gas Association (CGA) is excited to be hosting the next International Gas Research Conference – IGRC2024 - in beautiful Banff, Alberta in May 2024. IGRC2024 comes at a pivotal time in Canadian and international energy conversations. Natural gas and its world-class infrastructure have supported economic development, affordable energy options, and energy security for jurisdictions around the world. Furthermore, the use of gas energy and gas infrastructure is forecasted to grow substantially in the next several decades. However, the energy landscape is a tumultuous one at present – leaders around the world are setting bold emissions reduction targets and many are trying to find a single solution to environmental challenges. At the same time, consumers are increasingly concerned about the availability of reliable and affordable energy to meet their daily needs. There is no single fuel or technology that will solve all the world’s challenges. But as Canada’s natural gas industry knows well, gaseous energy and infrastructure will be an essential part of the mix no matter what. Our fuels, our industry’s technical know-how and drive for innovation, and our versatile and resilient energy infrastructure, have been foundational to the extraordinary societal well-being we have achieved in Canada. And they will be key to Canada’s - and the world’s – future well-being. That future well-being turns on a focus on innovation. The Canadian gas industry has made innovation a major priority: with renewable natural gas (RNG) development, hydrogen production, transportation and blending projects, gas-electric integration, liquefied natural gas (LNG) applications for remote communities, gas heat pump technology, emission management technologies and more. We in Canada want to show what we are doing, but also learn from what others around the world have under way. IGRC2024 will be an opportunity to do both those things.

🎊👏It’s a wrap!! 🎊 The last day of #IGRC2024 was dedicated to continuing the #dialogue from the last couple of days, #empowering the industry to #innovate. 🔹The first session of the day was a Global Spotlight Session on Innovation and Environment with Amir Foster, László Fritsch, Prof. Liu He and moderator Michele Harradence. The session discussed the critical goal of balancing #reliability and #affordability within the #gasIndustry and what #gasInnovation means in their country. “When we talk about energy security, people think about reliability and resilience, and I think they forget about affordability, just having resources doesn’t bring you security” – Amir Foster 🔹High engagement during the final technical sessions on topics of: Geology Reservoirs, Methane slip, Hydrogen safety, Digitalization and automation of integrated energy systems 🔹The What’s Next – Energy Innovation and the Citizen of Tomorrow session with Andrea Stegher, Carlos Cortes Simon, Prof Andrew Garnett, Will Jordan and moderator Heather Exner-Pirot, dived into the current state of the #gasIndustry and what they want to see over the next 10 years. “In the US, natural gas replacing coal has been the single largest driver for emission reductions. Between 2005-2020 this switching had a larger climate reduction impact than all the work done in Germany, Italy, Japan and the UK combined.” – Will Jordan 🔹 Stephen Buffalo and Estha Nulty received the #IGRC Awards of Excellence for their engagement and unique contributions to the conference dialogue. Congratulations! 🔹The conference was closed by an official handover to MVM CEEnergy, hosts of #IGRC2027, which will take place in Budapest, Hungary! “The industry needs to communicate the innovations that we’re doing, and our industry is built on innovation, we are not new to that, this is what we must do going forward.” – Mel ( Menelaos) Ydreos See you then!!!! 🙌✈️ International Gas Union Rodney Cox Tatiana Khanberg Canadian Gas Association
