Edmonton Global

🌍🎙️Tune in to the newest episode of Edmonton Global’s #DecarbonizingToday, a series where we’re talking with leaders in the clean tech economy to explore what it means to decarbonize and how the Edmonton Region is working on expediting that transition. 🔥 In today's episode with Candice Paton from Enhance Energy Inc. on stacked geology CCUS and how public perception and government incentives affect the transition to a clean tech economy. “It’s an important technology that serves a real industrial need,” says Paton. “Being competitive globally means also being competitive in emissions reductions and we can do that because of the strengths we’ve built – and will continue to build – in CCUS.” 🚀 https://lnkd.in/g3bbwAQS
