Canada as a country is energy rich, but is it making full use of the energy, especially the electricity, it produces?

In this episode, Goldy Hyder sits down with Emily Heitman, Country President of Schneider Electric Canada, to unpack one of Canada’s biggest challenges: energy capacity.

“We know we have a shortage of power in the country, yet we're wasting 50 per cent of the power we produce,” she says, pointing to the increasing need for electricity to power new investments in Canada.

She shares how digital solutions, AI, and smart technology can help Canada reduce consumption, unlocking new electrical capacity and efficiency.

“I really feel like there's an opportunity for us to both expand the supply and go after that supply demand equation when it comes to energy.”
