🎉 Exciting News from CONVERGE 2024! 🎉
On stage at CONVERGE 2024, Diana Stephenson (@bchydro) and our @Sarah__Goodman announced the new $3 million Call for Energy Storage Innovation!🔋
Applications accepted until Feb 28, 2025. 🗓️

There are many ways to tackle affordability. There are fewer ways to effectively tackle climate change. And the federal carbon price and rebate leaves most better off, especially the poor. When they say axe the tax it’s not about affordability. It’s about axing climate action.

Canada #1 for EV🥇🚗🔋
Don’t take it from me, take it from Bloomberg:
“Canada, whose continued growth across all areas of the supply chain & consistent performance in the metrics being assessed have given it an edge over competitors.”

Congrats to Canada for moving forward with its EV Availability Standard to help keep our air clean and help drivers save on fuel costs. 🚗 ⚡️
Since BC brought in the #ZEV Act in 2019, we’ve exceeded every target, even when critics said it would be impossible.
Canada’s new Electric Vehicle Availability Standard sets a course for all new vehicle sales to be electric or plug-in hybrid by 2035.
The world is moving towards fully electric. And Canada is on the right track to get there.

🇨🇦 announced its framework for oil & gas emissions cap today. Here’s a 🧵
TLDR: this policy is a big part of 🇨🇦's plan to achieve its 2030 target. It’s been designed to target emissions reductions in the sector, *not* decreases in production. canada.ca/en/environment-cli…

Axe the carbon tax, and you surely axe the climate action incentive "rebate." This means most families will wind up being worse off.

We will only get to net zero if heavy-emitting sectors get the finance they need to cut emissions. I wrote about #GFANZ's and @bloombergdotorg's strategy to get capital flowing in the Economist 1/10

Despite claims of waning consumer interest, Canadian EV sales just broke another record in Q3 2023. Zero-emission vehicles now make up 13.3% of new car sales! 🚗⚡️💥

My latest in @TorontoStar: "Carbon pricing is a conservative policy that works. The affordability problem is that oil and gas companies are making out like bandits." thestar.com/opinion/contribu…
Bingo.
Jurisdiction over climate might be shared between the federal and provincial/territorial governments but, so far, accountability is pretty asymmetric.
