‘Renewables are being used as a negotiating tool’: Alberta clean energy producers respond to regulation squabbles
Description
August 14, 2023
The premier of Alberta isn't mincing words in her response to the federal government's proposed clean energy regulations. It targets decarbonizing the electrical grid by 2035, a move Premier Danielle Smith said will crush Alberta's economy and make electricity unreliable and unaffordable. As Sarah Offin reports, it's a political battle of wills, leaving local clean energy producers in the crosshairs.
