🇨🇦 Going into COP, Canada’s reputation on the climate world stage had lost a little of its lustre. In the end, was #COP28 hot air or real climate progress?
Our top four takeaways👇

Despite claims of waning consumer interest, Canadian EV sales just broke another record in Q3 2023. Zero-emission vehicles now make up 13.3% of new car sales! 🚗⚡️💥

This is, as usual, a must read from @RachelSDoran about last week’s change to carbon pricing.
And fairly close to how I’m feeling too.
I’ll add — virtually all of the new measures DO apply nationally (rebate, pump, pause etc). That’s been lost.

🚨 The @IEA's new #NetZeroRoadmap is out! 🚨
The path to limiting global warming to 1.5C has narrowed since 2021, but despite stubbornly high emissions, the staggering growth of clean energy technologies like solar & EVs is keeping it open

Spoiler alert!!! Getting ready to tell Canadians just how much $ they can save by going clean with #EVs, #heatpumps, etc on morning radio in @CBCToronto, @CBCMoncton, @CBCWinnipeg, @CBCSaskatoon, @CBCVancouver…. Report drops tmrw AM!
Volvo - rolling their last diesel vehicle off the line in 2024, because “electric vehicles are simply better”.
Marketing? Yes. 100% accurate? Also yes.

In the #cleanenergy future, instead of burning things to get around, or get warm - we're going to be plugging in. And in #Canada, post-2035 we'll be plugging into a 100% clean electricity grid. Want to know how you'll benefit?

Here are three ways Canadians will benefit from a 100% clean electricity grid. #cdnpoli #onpoli #qcpoli #electricvehicles
Great to see @ToddSmithPC putting focus on the importance of #cleanenergy as competitive advantage for Ontario - including new procurement for #renewables in "Powering Ontario's Growth"-- but energy system planning also needs a #netzero goal to ground all action.

#CleanEnergy produces electricity at lower cost than natural-gas fired power.
And gosh darn, people like it.

🍁"To ensure enough affordable, clean power is brought online, (B.C. needs) to make the right choices now. This not only means producing more clean electricity but also prioritizing how best to use it."

🚨🌞AMAZING solar stats klaxxon🌞🚨
It took 22 years for the world's solar power capacity to grow from one gigawatt to one terawatt
The latest @SolarPowerEU projections say the second AND the third terawatts will arrive WITHIN FIVE YEARS

New piece by @S_HastingsSimon and me. Our rebuttal of the too-common criticism of renewables that "the wind doesn't always blow and the sun doesn't always shine." There are LOTS of ways to balance their variability.

🔌💰"People shouldn't underestimate how fast this market is moving," said Clean Energy Canada's @RachelSDoran.
Our research last year showed that Canadians save substantially with EVs compared to gas cars—and that a majority know it.

Worldwide EV sales are growing... very fast.
The new edition of the IEA’s annual Global Electric Vehicle Outlook shows that the overall EV market has risen from around 4% in 2020 to 14% in 2022 and is set to increase further to 18% this year.
