Webinar: Factors affecting social acceptance of renewable energy and transmission projects.
Register for our May 24, 2022 webinar
The Conservation Council of New Brunswick (CCNB) invites you to a webinar on May 24, 2022, 1 p.m. to 2 p.m.
Dr. Louise Comeau, Director of Climate Change and Energy Solutions at CCNB will present our findings on the factors affecting social acceptance of renewable energy and transmission projects.
Electricity powered by renewable energy is a growing solution to climate change. Energy experts consistently project at least a doubling of the size of Canada’s electricity system to power transportation, buildings and industry over the next couple of decades. Engineers, energy modellers and economists tell us what needs to be done. What’s missing from the conversation about electrification is what citizens think, need and want. Attend this webinar to learn what social scientists and the Conservation Council of New Brunswick’s national focus groups and survey research find is important to social acceptance of renewable energy and transmission projects.
