Volts Energies at Electricity Transformation Canada 2026: Meet Elios and Li-Cube

Volts Energies is exhibiting at Electricity Transformation Canada 2026 (ETC 2026), Canada's flagship clean energy conference and exhibition. The event runs October 19 to 21, 2026, at the Enercare Centre in Toronto, Ontario.

At booth #1214, the Volts Energies team will showcase two brands from its group of companies:

• Elios makes Canadian-engineered solar panels, batteries, inverters, and racking.

• Li-Cube builds containerized hybrid solar power systems in Québec for remote and off-grid sites.

This guide explains what ETC 2026 is, who attends, what the program covers, what you can see at the Volts Energies booth, and how to plan your visit.

What Is Electricity Transformation Canada 2026?

Electricity Transformation Canada is an annual conference and trade show for Canada's renewable energy and electricity sector. Professionals from solar, wind, energy storage, grid modernization, and hydrogen meet there to learn, compare technology, and build business partnerships.

The three-day event combines several formats:

• Plenary sessions and keynotes

• Concurrent education sessions

• Show floor theatre talks

• An Expo Hall with manufacturers, distributors, developers and financiers

ETC is where Canada's clean electricity industry meets to talk about how the grid will grow over the next decade.

Who Organizes ETC 2026?

The Canadian Renewable Energy Association (CanREA) develops ETC 2026. CanREA is the national voice for wind energy, solar energy and energy storage in Canada.

CanREA runs the event with two partners:

• RE+ Events is a global clean energy event organizer. Its flagship show, RE+, is the largest renewable energy event in North America.

• IGECO Canada (Italian German Exhibition Company Canada) is an alliance between Italian Exhibition Group and Deutsche Messe, two major international trade fair companies.

These partners give ETC both a Canadian policy focus and an international business network.

When and Where Is ETC 2026 Held?

ETC 2026 runs from Monday, October 19, to Wednesday, October 21, 2026. It takes place at the Enercare Centre, 100 Princes' Blvd, Toronto, Ontario, M6K 3C3, on the Exhibition Place grounds.

The organizers also run a French-language site under the name Transformation Électrique Canada for Francophone attendees.

Who Attends Electricity Transformation Canada?

Organizers expect more than 2,500 attendees at ETC 2026. The 2025 edition was the largest to date, with:

Attendees come from across the electricity value chain:

• Solar, wind and energy storage companies

• Power utilities and electricity retailers

• Industrial energy system operators

• Municipalities

• Indigenous organizations

• Federal and provincial government representatives

• Real estate and construction firms

This mix means a visitor can meet a utility planner, a project developer and an equipment supplier in the same afternoon.

What Topics Will ETC 2026 Cover?

The 2026 program focuses on the practical questions facing Canada's electricity system:

• Affordability and reliability of power

• Rising electricity demand

• Investment and competitiveness

• Energy security

• Grid modernization

CanREA has framed the program around how Canada can build ahead of demand, attract investment and create opportunities for communities.

Featured Keynotes and Speakers at ETC 2026

Business Pavilions on the ETC Show Floor

The Expo Hall groups related companies into business pavilions. This makes it easier to compare solutions side by side.

• Energy Storage Pavilion: Companies showing technology that improves storage efficiency, reliability and grid stability.

• Hydrogen Pavilion: Fuel cells, hydrogen production and hydrogen storage solutions.

• Indigenous Business Pavilion: Indigenous-led renewable energy companies and projects that support energy sovereignty.

• Start-up Pavilion: Early-stage clean energy companies with under 20 employees, under $3 million in funding and under $1 million in revenue.

Why Volts Energies Is Exhibiting at ETC 2026

Volts Energies is a Canadian solar retailer. It is part of a group of companies that includes Elios and Li-Cube. Volts Energies is exhibiting at ETC 2026 to show its commitment to Canada's energy transition and to support the work of Electricity Transformation Canada.

The event also gives the team a direct way to grow its network. ETC brings together the people who specify, install, distribute and finance solar and storage systems across the country. These include installers, electricians, distributors, contractors and site operators. Meeting them in person helps Volts Energies:

• Share Elios and Li-Cube products with buyers who use them in the field

• Hear about real project needs, from cottages to mine sites

• Connect with businesses interested in joining the Elios dealer network

• Stay current on the policy and market changes discussed on the conference stage

What You Will See at Volts Booth

Booth #1214 brings together two product families. Elios covers solar and storage components for residential, commercial and off-grid systems. Li-Cube combines those components into complete, ready-to-deploy power systems.

Elios: Canadian-Engineered Solar Panels, Batteries, Inverters and Racking

Elios designs, certifies and supplies solar equipment for licensed installers, distributors, commercial contractors and industrial operators across Canada. Its products are stocked in a Canadian warehouse.

Elios products carry several safety and compliance certifications:

• CSA C22.2: Canadian electrical safety

• UL 1741 SB: Inverter grid support

• UL 9540: Energy storage systems

• UL 1973: Battery safety

• UN38.3: Battery transport

• RoHS: Restricted hazardous materials

For dealers, Elios offers wholesale pricing, project-level technical support and fast fulfilment from Canadian stock. Support is available in eight languages: English, French, Spanish, Arabic, Persian, Greek, Mandarin and Hindi.

Li-Cube: Containerized Hybrid Solar Power for Remote and Off-Grid Sites

Li-Cube designs and builds containerized hybrid power systems in Québec. Each unit combines four parts in one deployable container:

• Solar panels

• Battery storage

• A backup generator

• Intelligent controls

Each system is factory-built and fully tested before delivery. Units connect through 4G and Starlink for remote monitoring and are built to operate at −40°C.

Li-Cube has tested these systems on real sites. In a 57-day trial at an active job site in Québec, a Li-Cube system cut backup generator run time by 91% compared with the site's previous continuous-generator setup. Solar covered 34.9% of the site's energy demand, even through an unusually rainy period.

How Elios and Li-Cube Support Canada's Energy Transition?

Many of the topics on the ETC 2026 program are problems that solar and storage solve at the site level.

Reliability and energy security. Battery storage and hybrid inverters keep critical loads running during outages. Pairing solar with LiFePO4 or AGM batteries gives homes, farms and businesses backup power that does not depend only on the grid.

Cutting diesel use. Construction sites, mines and remote monitoring stations often run diesel generators around the clock. Hybrid systems like Li-Cube let solar and batteries carry much of the load. The generator then runs only as backup, which lowers fuel cost, emissions, noise and maintenance.

Power where the grid can't reach. Remote communities, telecom towers and exploration camps can't always wait for a utility connection. A factory-tested container can be delivered and powering a site soon after it arrives.

Built for Canadian conditions. Canadian winters mean snow loads, short days and extreme cold. Equipment rated for −40°C and certified to CSA standards is designed for these conditions.

Adding capacity close to the load. Solar and storage at the point of use add local generation and backup capacity as electricity demand grows. This aligns with ETC's focus on building ahead of demand.

Who Should Visit the Volts Energies Booth?

Booth #1214 is most useful for professionals who design, sell, install or operate solar and storage systems.

If you are interested in joining the Elios dealer network, ETC is a good place to meet the team in person and discuss your market.
