Environment, Energy and Climate Action Prince Edward Island is the provincial provider behind the PEI Climate Challenge Fund. The fund supports innovative climate action projects across the province, including work that reduces or removes greenhouse gas emissions and helps communities adapt to a changing climate through education, research and innovation. Its role in the funding ecosystem is important because climate adaptation and mitigation projects often require early public support before savings or environmental benefits can be fully measured. By funding municipalities, First Nations, businesses, academic institutions, not-for-profit organizations and other Island partners, the department helps turn climate policy into practical local projects. The program also supports cross-sector experimentation, allowing smaller communities and organizations to test approaches that can improve resilience, inform future investment and move Prince Edward Island toward net-zero and adaptation goals.
