The progressive side of Canada’s fossil-fuel energy debate is pushing back against the prospect of relying on natural gas as a path to a carbon-free future.
WASHINGTON -
Nichole Dusyk, a senior policy adviser with the International Institute for Sustainable Development, says renewable energy sources like wind and solar are growing more viable every day. “High prices are clouding people’s judgment about the long-term economic prospects of natural gas,” Dusyk said in an interview.The idea of using natural gas as an interim solution to the challenge of meeting present-day demand for energy while reducing carbon emissions has been gaining traction in recent months.
And a recent report released by the Future of Business Centre at the Canadian Chamber of Commerce proposed ramping up Canada’s export capacity of LNG and advancing it as an alternative to coal-fired energy around the globe. Dusyk’s own research has concluded there is a “fundamental mismatch” between Canada’s capacity crunch and the immediate needs of Europe and other countries once dependent on Russia.
