The study "Canada-Germany Resource Security: Navigating in a Changing World Order", conducted by our member Nanos Research, Atlantik-Brücke Canada, and Konrad Adenauer Stiftung Canada, identifies Green Hydrogen and Critical Minerals as the most promising areas for German Canadian collaboration in the field of energy. 

The study concludes that investments in infrastructure are needed to advance the partnership. Both countries should also work together to develop standards and regulations.
