Canadians need more affordable EV options.🍁🚗 Opening our market to greater competition can help drive down costs and push automakers to offer better, cheaper vehicles. Our Transportation director explains why competition matters for consumers and Canada's auto future. #cdnpoli 👇

Importing 49,000 Chinese EVs isn’t the biggest threat to Canada’s auto sector — over-reliance on the U.S. is. Diversifying our auto sector by growing the availability of low-cost EVs is key to strengthening the industry’s long-term resilience. #cdnpoli #EVs More in @thewalrus.ca 📰👉 buff.ly/xOEFnZX

Global oil demand is set to fall for the first time since 2020, as conflict in the Middle East continues to disrupt supply, exposing the risks of relying on volatile oil markets. Another reminder that investing in electrification and clean energy also improves energy security. ⚡ 🔗 buff.ly/FLOHXB9

1/3 of B.C.’s skilled construction workers are set to retire in the next decade. With a workforce plan, the province has an opportunity to ensure local workers benefit first from major #CleanEnergy projects. #bcpoli More from @globalnews.ca 👉 buff.ly/edh8jrK

☀️ India is proving that economic growth doesn't have to depend on rising fossil fuel use. The country has surpassed 150 GW of solar capacity and is building the world's largest solar park to power industry, transportation and more with #CleanElectricity. 🔗➡️ buff.ly/ez0uaqn

Canadians are spending more time under wildfire smoke each year. Taking actions like investing in building retrofits can help shield people from smoke while preparing homes for a changing climate. #cdnpoli More in @nationalobserver.com 📰👉 buff.ly/lf8KFIG

We sat down with @nationalobserver.com to discuss Alberta's growing data centre demand, rising power prices, and why a diverse energy mix, including wind, solar, storage, and natural gas, offers the lowest-risk path forward. Your weekend read:

Alberta electricity industry expects tripling of power prices from data centres

In Capital Power's latest earnings call, the company's CEO, Avik Dey, told analysts that he couldn't rule out prices of "$80 or $90" per megawatt hour of electricity by early 2028. By 2029, rival…

Some good news for British Columbians 👏 By 2035, the province and BC Hydro will build 3,500 more #ElectricVehicle charging ports, supported by a $700M public investment. This will create one of Canada’s largest public charging networks! 🚗🔌 #bcpoli #EVs 🔗: buff.ly/fcO5KxI

30+% EV uptake in the EU, over 50% in China, and 30% globally by the end of this year. The world is going electric. And if Canada wants a competitive auto industry, it needs to embrace electrification. That’s where the vehicle emissions standard comes in. More on @energimedia.bsky.social 🎙️🚗

Alberta shouldn’t default to natural gas generation for new #DataCentres. “With solar and wind power, quite often you have storage and backup batteries anyway. It’s a great way to store excess energy at times and send it back to the grid when it’s needed.” #abpoli 📰👉: buff.ly/hvP35S6

Canada is a leader in hydroelectricity, but when it comes to wind and solar, we rank just 57th. As countries race to build low-cost electricity systems, Canada has an opportunity to move faster on wind and solar at home. Read the latest findings from @ember-energy.org: buff.ly/M4opcpN

⚡ The age of electricity is here. The new #ElectrifyNow coalition highlights a trend underway: electrification and clean energy are reducing long-term demand for oil and gas. For Canada, prosperity increasingly depends on investing in clean electricity, grids and storage.

A new hyperscale data centre is coming to Alberta, raising important questions about electricity demand and affordability. Our electricity director spoke w/ CTV News about how increased reliance on natural gas generation could affect both electricity prices & home heating costs. ⬇️
