Energy Drivers – How organizations in the power & utilities sector can navigate the challenges of growing consumer adoption of EVs.

In this episode, we talk to Chris Lopez, Chief Financial Officer of Hydro One about the challenges that growing consumer adoption of EV’s will pose for Canadian power utilities such as Hydro One.

Three insights to take away:

  • The power & utilities sector will witness substantial change and substantially increased demand as the energy transition unfolds.  The sector needs to act today to be ready for net zero emissions by 2050.
  • Companies operating in the power & utilities sector should look at being an enabler of choice by making available the best energy solutions for the consumer and society that are sustainable, affordable and secure
  • Leveraging technology and innovation, such as smart grids, will be essential to satisfy future consumer demand.
