Episode: Episode 046: Nova Scotia’s Peter Gregg and the decarbonization puzzle
Description: Recorded on Zoom in early October 2021, episode 46 is the eighth in a series of podcasts seeking to unpack Canada’s Net Zero 2050 greenhouse gas target. For this episode, Peter Gregg, President and CEO of Nova Scotia Power and I talk about the challenges of meeting GHG reduction targets, and Nova Scotia Power’s plans to decarbonize their electricity system, taking into consideration customer affordability and reliability. We touch on technologies, the importance of regional interconnections (Maritime Link, Atlantic Loop), and the need for clear policy direction. As with previous podcasts, we wrap up the conversation with a book recommendation.
