The Energy Transition in Canada faces a number of different challenges, particularly the reliability and affordability of provincial grids when governments pledge to electrify everything. Even though�the province of Ontario generates over 90% of its electricity from zero or low carbon sources, the push to retire natural gas power plants and resistance to building more reliable�power generation�in favour of installing more unreliable wind and solar power, while at the same time of increasing demand on the grid, has created a situation of�potential brown outs and requests for voluntary demand constriction.�Joining Dr. Tammy�Nemeth�in a discussion about the challenges of Ontario and Canada’s energy transition is Parker Gallant. Parker is a retired banker who has devoted a significant amount of time of his retirement to researching and analysing the energy sector — production, transmission, and distribution of energy in Ontario.�You can find his writings on a number of different energy related topics at his blog:�https://parkergallantenergyperspectivesblog.wordpress.com/
