About the Event

The presentations reviewed the recent history of the energy sector and looked ahead to 2025 and beyond. A number of important influences are expected to come to bear on the Canadian energy sector in both the near-term and long-term future.

Among the issues raised during the afternoon were:

  • The expected dramatic increase in energy demand from existing and, especially, new sources.
  • The continuing electrification of the Canadian economy.
  • The resulting requirement for a significant energy infrastructure expansion in the country.
    • Are Canadian regulatory systems adequately coordinated, resourced, and designed to provide the timely decisions necessary for investors and project developers to determine the commercial viability of their projects?
    • Can the energy sector attract the capital necessary to meet the anticipated demand?
    • How are we preparing for the generational shift in human resources and expertise necessary to meet the security, reliability, and affordability expectations of Canadian consumers?
    • What will be necessary to meet the existential changes in export markets?
