A higher carbon price does not reduce the need for activist, sector specific, policy. It makes green industrial policy more urgent (and effective) I list 5 reasons why, in this blog for @broadbent broadbentinstitute.ca/5_reasons_why_…

Under the new 🇨🇦Clean Electricity Regulations, let's make paying people for energy efficiency the first resort and natural gas the last @s_guilbeault @JonathanWNV nationalobserver.com/2024/12/23/opi…

We have an affordability and climate crisis So why are policies paying gas power plants for grid reliability when we could be paying people? Read this article on why 🇨🇦 should prioritize energy efficiency & demand flexibility for a clean grid nationalobserver.com/2024/12/23/opi…

Provinces are realizing that they need energy efficiency to manage affordability and growing clean electricity demand @jamesgaede gives rundown of provincial policies and what governments should do next for @IRPP policyoptions.irpp.org/magazines/dece…

The latest data shows energy efficiency program savings and spending increasing in Canada infogram.com/1pg2w9kv0ke7rp…

Today's Clean Electricity Regulations gives leeway for gas plants to operate in a "net-zero" grid That's makes the energy efficiency and demand flex policies in the new strategy all the more important You can read a review here efficiencycanada.org/energy-efficie…

Lots going on today, but did you know The #cdnpoli Fall Economic Statement tops up $40k interest-free loans for energy retrofits efficiencycanada.org/2024-fall-econ…

🤔 Did you know? New research from @IRPP shows that emissions pricing isn't the inflation driver many think it is. Roughly 98% of the increase in consumer prices is due to factors like changes in global energy prices and supply chain disruptions - not emissions pricing.

The @OntarioNDP is proposing expanding bill assistance to natural gas and fuel oil heated homes - created a social safety net against energy poverty ontariondp.ca/news/ndp-mpps-…

“Nova Scotia's leadership position in energy efficiency has been overtaken by other provinces, including its closest neighbours.” #nspoli atlantic.ctvnews.ca/nova-scotia-st…

If you are at the end of this thread, perhaps you are a policy analyst, student, business that can use the shiny new policy tracking database. You can search the policy details across province and issue area database.efficiencycanada.org

This Scorecard shows several provinces significantly ramping up low-income energy efficiency because energy poverty is a real problem The feds should lead by making eliminating energy poverty a national priority. Here is a blog on how. efficiencycanada.org/eliminate-ener…
