Episode 035: Kate Chisholm and a Capital Power’s Net Zero Journey


Listen Later

Recorded on Zoom in early June 2021, episode 35 is the second in a series of podcasts seeking to unpack Canada’s Net Zero 2050 greenhouse gas target. For this episode, Capital Power’s Senior VP Kate Chisholm discusses the commitments her company has made to carbon intensity reduction by 2030 and Net Zero by 2050. In my conversation with Kate, we discuss the accelerated move off coal in 2023, the role new technologies (including carbon capture, utilization and storage; and direct air capture) will play in the future, and prospects for Canadian leadership in GHG reduction technologies. We also talk about sustainability and the growing importance of ESG for tomorrow’s investor. And, once again, we close the conversation with a book recommendation, in this case, Kate is recommending a book I just bought but have not yet opened.
