The Sustainability Agenda

Tyler Farrell of RMI joins Tom Heintzman, Vice Chair, Energy & Climate Finance, to discuss how U.S. grid operators are managing large load interconnection requests, including allocating the costs for large interconnections, how this phenomenon is shaping transmission investments, and why system-wide transmission planning is needed to make the wisest investments for the long term.

Daniel Sax of Canadian Strategic Missions Corporation joins Tom Heintzman, Vice Chair, Energy & Climate Finance, to discuss why a Canadian space and defence company is developing micro nuclear reactors for remote and mission-critical applications, and how the case for resilient power can strengthen Canada’s energy security and sovereignty – from arctic development to lunar ambitions.

Michael Bernstein of Clean Prosperity joins Tom Heintzman, Vice Chair, Energy & Climate Finance, to discuss key provisions of the Canada-Alberta Memorandum of Understanding on industrial carbon pricing. They explore the agreement’s strengths, weaknesses, and market impacts, and whether it ‘makes the grade’ in advancing credible, long-term decarbonization for Alberta’s oil and gas sector.
