We are excited to announce that Green Energy Futures is heading out on tour to bring back stories of some of Canada's best net-zero home builders.We're calling the series Chasing Net Zero, which we are doing in collaboration with the Canadian Home Builders Association Net Zero Labelling program, which launched in 2016.Pioneering home builders have been working on net-zero homes since the mid-2000s, but the CHBA realized what was needed was a program to define and label these homes as net-zero or net-zero ready to help builders and consumers alike.Today, the idea is taking off with 365 builders, energy advisors, and retrofitters involved in the program having built more than 3,700 net-zero homes.We talk to Sonja Winkemann and Colin Bayne of the CHBA Net Zero Labelling program to find out what a net-zero home is and how it all works.We have already begun filming stories on some amazing home builders such as Doug Tarry Homes in St. Thomas, Ontario, Land Ark Homes in West Port, Ontario, and Avalon Master Builders in Calgary, Alberta. There are many more to come in the series, which begins in May 6, 2026.Get ready to be inspired and see the future of housing being built today.

Instead of saying ban fossil fuels tomorrow, what if by using a small amount of flexible gas we could get to 96% clean energy?This is the thrust of Michael Liebreich's Pragmatic Climate Reset.

Today, we talk to Anders Lindberg of Wärtsilä out of Finland, which makes flexible gas power plants.

In one example, their models show you could replace 30% coal generation with just 12% flexible gas capacity, use it only 4% of the time and achive 96% clean energy and radically lower emissions.🟢 GreenEnergyFutures.ca CKUA.com Podcast❤️ Subscribe Today - We have more than 400 episodes!✅ BLOG - GreenEnergyFutures.ca✅ PODCAST - https://open.spotify.com/show/1IFLWH0wmCBwpEF7BQv7FA?si=7b384d7e63c0493c✅ SUPPORT OUR WORK - Buy Me a Coffee - https://buymeacoffee.com/greenfuturesGreen Energy Futures is a passion project.

Understanding the proposed MOU between Alberta and Ottawa on energy and climate means diving into the shell games surrounding industrial carbon pricing - we dive in.There is a lot at stake here - Alberta wants less red tape for oil and gas, and Canada wants action on climate change. We talk to Janetta McKenzie, director of oil and gas at the Pembina Institute, to understand what the real price of industrial carbon is and why it matters.

Pembina says there is $40 billion of investment in low-carbon investments that could be unleashed if they get it right.

SkyFire Energy, one of Alberta's oldest solar companies, just acquired Hakai Energy Solutions, diversifying its markets into Coastal British Columbia. The move also adds battery storage expertise and off-grid experience to their offerings.The move comes as utility-scale solar in Alberta has collapsed under the weight of a moratorium, policies hostile to large-scale renewables, and high levels of market uncertainty. At 25 years old, SkyFire is used to the ups and downs of the industry and has, from day one, focused on a diversified focus on home, commercial, and utility-scale solar. And they have slowly diversified their geographic markets as well.We talk to SkyFire CEO David Vonesch about the acquisition and the company's diversified approach. Apparently, rooftop and commercial solar is still growing quickly in Alberta, but utility-scale projects have all but vanished.Billions of investment have vanished from Alberta too, moving to markets like British Columbia, Ontario, and Quebec.🟢 GreenEnergyFutures.ca CKUA.com Podcast❤️ Subscribe Today - We have more than 400 episodes!✅ BLOG - GreenEnergyFutures.ca✅ PODCAST - https://open.spotify.com/show/1IFLWH0wmCBwpEF7BQv7FA?si=7b384d7e63c0493c✅ SUPPORT OUR WORK - Buy Me a Coffee - https://buymeacoffee.com/greenfuturesGreen Energy Futures is a passion project.

Alberta's hostile treatment of the renewable energy industry has resulted in nearly 15 gigawatts of projects worth billions of dollars vanishing into thin air. In just a few years before the province's moratorium and subsequent policy changes, Alberta benefited from $6 billion in investment in renewable energy, 6,000 jobs, and $74 million in new tax revenue to cash-starved municipalities.We talk to Jorden Dye of the Business Renewables Centre Canada, an organization that tracks investments in Power Purchase Agreements with the industry. The volume is down 99% in the wake of policy changes.
