Recorded in Rankin Inlet, Nunavut during the 2025 Kivalliq Energy Forum, this episode of Q’s Corner features a conversation with Malek Tawashy, Founder and CEO of Northern Energy Capital (NEC).
Malek leads Northern Energy Capital, a renewable energy development company focused on empowering northern and remote communities in their transition to clean energy asset ownership. With over 16 years of experience delivering large-scale capital projects ranging from $25M to $200M, he brings deep expertise in project development, infrastructure, and long-term energy planning.
In addition to his role at NEC, Malek serves as a board member for several Inuit- and First Nation–owned renewable energy companies in Yukon and Nunavut. His work centers on community-driven energy solutions that support sustainability, resilience, and local ownership across the North.
Outside of his professional work, Malek leads a competitive sailing team and is an active mentor to Indigenous youth interested in pursuing careers in the clean energy sector. In this episode, he shares insights on northern energy development, community partnerships, and the future of clean energy in the Arctic.
