Learning outcomes
- Canada is already in transition to adoption of electric vehicles — the signposts seem to indicate that it will accelerate at a moderate rate.
- With a growing global population and the ramifications of climate change, we need to consider radically changing the way energy is consumed over the next several decades.
- While oil will still be an important part of the energy mix in the coming decades, oil and gas companies are going to have to adapt how they develop resources, how they invest in clean technologies and how they fit into energy distribution to thrive in the energy transition.
