Podcasts about carbon price

The past week saw a surge in energy-related political developments in Canada. Prime Minister Carney issued a unified Mandate Letter to his cabinet on May 21, 2025, emphasizing that Canada “must build an enormous amount of new infrastructure at speeds not seen in generations. This includes the infrastructure to diversify our trading relationships; to become an energy superpower in both clean and conventional energies.” The newly appointed Minister of Energy and Natural Resources, Tim Hodgson, delivered a constructive message during his visit to Calgary, highlighting the importance of building energy infrastructure, including oil and gas. Meanwhile, the Premiers from Western Canada convened a meeting in Yellowknife. They released a joint statement agreeing to plan and develop an economic corridor for “transporting oil and gas, liquefied natural gas, uranium, electricity, and hydroelectricity to Canadian and world markets.” To discuss these developments, we are joined by our guest, The Honourable Gordon Campbell, President of Hawksmuir International Partners Limited. He is the former Premier of British Columbia (2001–2011), Canadian High Commissioner to the UK and Northern Ireland (2011–2016), and Mayor of Vancouver (1986–1993). Here are some of the questions Jackie and Peter posed to The Honourable Gordon Campbell: Based on the Carney government's constructive comments on energy infrastructure and attracting private investment, including the Energy and Natural Resources Minister's trip to Calgary last week, would you anticipate a new approach from the Liberals compared to the previous decade? The Western Premiers issued a joint statement to develop economic corridors, including those for transporting electricity, natural gas, and oil. What types of projects do you expect David Eby's NDP government to support in British Columbia?  Would you expect the Federal government to revise or repeal energy policies, particularly those that might deter capital investment, such as the industrial carbon pricing policy set to increase to $170 per tonne by 2030 or the oil and gas emissions cap? Please review our disclaimer at: https://www.arcenergyinstitute.com/disclaimer/ Check us out on social media: X (Twitter): @arcenergyinstLinkedIn: @ARC Energy Research Institute Subscribe to ARC Energy Ideas PodcastApple PodcastsAmazon MusicSpotify 

In this week's episode, host Kristin Hayes talks with Aaron Cosbey, a senior associate at the International Institute for Sustainable Development, about the future of climate policy in Canada. The newly elected leader of Canada's Liberal Party, Mark Carney, has replaced Justin Trudeau as prime minister and likely will face Pierre Poilievre, the leader of Canada's Conservative Party, in a general election. Cosbey discusses the consequences of these election outcomes for a controversial policy that taxes Canadians for consuming fossil fuels—though this policy also issues rebates of equivalent value, or more, to most Canadians. Cosbey also discusses how the Liberal and Conservative Parties differ in their views on carbon pricing, why the fuel tax on consumers is no longer politically viable, and what emissions-reduction policies Carney may support if the Liberal Party wins a general election.

The confluence of three external forces may present an opportunity in the next Congress for a carbon price. However, those external forces also constrain the opportunity such that if something passes, it will look different from the Energy Innovation and Carbon Dividend Act. This webinar will explore how those three forces constrain the debate, what that means for CCL's priorities, and most importantly, for the climate. To further enhance our discussion, we'll also be hearing from one of the Hamilton Project's authors of the Climate tax policy reform options in 2025.

For the month of August, we're highlighting episodes from the 2023-2024 season of Energy Policy Now. We'll be back with new content, and a new season, on September the 10th. Senator Sheldon Whitehouse discusses the prospects for bipartisan U.S. carbon border fee legislation, and the need to protect the Biden administration's clean energy and climate achievements. --- (This episode was recorded on March 15, 2024, during Penn Energy Week) Senator Sheldon Whitehouse has a reputation as an advocate for strong climate policies in Congress. The Rhode Island Democrat gained national attention over a decade ago when he gave the first of more than 290 “Time to Wake Up” climate speeches to date on the floor of the U.S. Senate. Many of the speeches were delivered at times when the prospects were bleak for significant leadership from Washington on climate and clean energy issues. Yet the past three years have been very different. Through the passage of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and, most pointedly, the Inflation Reduction Act, Congress has made concrete steps to grow domestic clean energy and improve the nation's climate resilience. Recently, Senator Whitehouse reintroduced a bill that would levy the first carbon border fee on goods imported to the U.S., and effectively reward American industry for its leadership in energy efficiency and emissions reductions. On the podcast, Whitehouse discusses his plan for a carbon border adjustment. He also considers an upcoming election that will prove critical for continued progress, and that could jeopardize the full realization of recently passed energy and climate laws and the fate of the Biden administration's related regulatory accomplishments.

Kia ora,Welcome to Tuesday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand.I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from Interest.co.nz.And today we lead with news of mostly second-tier indicators today.And that is because it is a public holiday in the US, Memorial Day, and financial markets are closed there.Tt is probably good that business is closed there for one major commercial real estate investor. Starwood Real Estate Income Trust has had to limit the amount of money that investors can redeem in the fund (see page 6), in an attempt to fend off a cash crunch as high interest rates hurt the market for commercial properties such as office buildings. They aren't the only REIT facing a liquidity crisis. With interest rates rising again, the tide is going out on these types of investments.In Japan, yields for their 10-year government bond yield rose above 1%, its highest level in 12 years. This came as the Bank of Japan governor said they need to re-anchor inflation expectations and warned that estimating the neutral interest rate accurately is challenging. Meanwhile, a deputy said the end of the battle against deflation was in sight, adding that wages are likely to continue increasing.Despite the punishment grip imposed by China (for voting for a candidate Beijing doesn't approve), consumer sentiment in Taiwan actually rose in May and by more than is usual. However to be fair the rise is just back to 'normal' levels after their recent election.China released industrial profit data today for April, and although this came in almost +14% higher than in April 2023, it is a very low base that enhances the apparent performance. Compared with April 2022, there profits are actually down -17%.In Germany, their closely-watched Ifo Business Climate indicator was steady at 89.3 in May, the same as a downwardly revised 89.3 in April, but both were well below forecasts of 90.4.And we should probably note - again - that the local carbon price hit another new recent low yesterday, now under NZ$45/NZU. You may recall that the last Government auction price was fixed at in March at NZ$64/tonne (and that was after a series of failed official events when nothing sold).The UST 10yr yield is now at 4.46% and down -1 bp from yesterday. The price of gold will start today up +US$21 from yesterday at US$2354/oz.Oil prices are up +US$1 at just over US$78.50/bbl in the US while the international Brent price is now over US$82.50/bbl.The Kiwi dollar starts today up +¼c from yesterday at just on 61.5 USc. Against the Aussie we are unchanged at 92.4 AUc. Against the euro we are marginally firmer at 56.6 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today over 70.7, which is up +15 bps from yesterday.The bitcoin price starts today at US$70,052 and up +3.4% from this time yesterday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been modest though at just on +/- 1.7%.You can find links to the articles mentioned today in our show notes.You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz.Kia ora. I'm David Chaston. And we will do this again tomorrow.

Kia ora,Welcome to Tuesday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand.I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from Interest.co.nz.And today we lead with news China seems to be struggling to find its way through the wreckage of its property crisis.The Chinese central bank left both its 1- and 5-year rates unchanged in their monthly review today, still at 3.45% and 3.95% respectively. The one year benchmark has been unchanged for nine consecutive months now, the five year benchmark for three. These 'holds' come amid a flurry of other loosening activity last week, targeted at reviving their property markets and saving the remaining large property developers.Analysts are forming the view that the actions China has taken to reinvigorate its property sector won't be enough to achieve that. Bets that much more stimulus will be required are juicing up some commodity markets. Copper, for example, has now risen to US$11,250/tonne, up +7.5% in a week, up double that in a month. Zinc has taken off too, up +10% in a month.Meanwhile that are chalking up some global success in other areas. The number of new shipbuilding orders in China rose almost +60% in Q1-2024 from the same period a year ago. This accounted for about 70% of global orders for ships. Almost 40% of those orders were for bulk cargo ships, 12% for container ships. But there was a notable surge in orders for oil tankers, accounting for 35% on Q1 orders. Normally they account for less than 10%.We should get the Chinese foreign direct investment data for April later today and markets are braced for another quite weak result as the two superpower blocks disentangle.And we should note that the southern province of the Guangxi (at the border with Vietnam) is suffering unusually heavy rainfall currently with widespread flooding. Both hourly and daily rainfall records have been broken.Meanwhile Taiwanese export orders came in in April at the same level as March, a very good result because that is almost +11% higher than April 2023 and well above the expected +4.5% gain.And we should also perhaps note that the New Zealand carbon price is falling away quite quickly now, with the NZU down to just $46/tonne. (You will recall it at over $80/tonne more than a year ago.) That is now miles below the NZ$132/tonne EU carbon price, which is languishing but not really falling.The UST 10yr yield is now at 4.44% and up +2 bps from this time yesterday. The price of gold will start today up +US$19 at US$2434/oz. Oil prices are down -50 USc at US$79/bbl in the US while the international Brent price is still just on US$83.50/bbl.The Kiwi dollar starts today down -20 bps from yesterday at just over 61.1 USc. Against the Aussie we are still up at 91.6 AUc. Against the euro we are softish at 56.3 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today just on 70.2, and down -20 bps from yesterday.The bitcoin price starts today at US$68,332 and up +2.4% from this time yesterday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been moderate however at +/- 2.1%.You can find links to the articles mentioned today in our show notes.You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz.Kia ora.

Europe's carbon price 'perfect storm' has started to ease, and it may be a ‘free option' to an ECB rate-cut driven GDP recovery and long-term regulatory market squeeze. We preview smartphone chip giant ARM's results on the bleeding-edge of the AI boom.

Now that the Inflation Reduction Act has changed the climate policy and clean technology landscape in the United States, prior modeling about the effectiveness of policies like a carbon price has become outdated. Fortunately, a new report has been published to outline the emissions-reducing potential of several climate policies in a post-IRA world, including carbon pricing. Join CCL Research Coordinator Dana Nuccitelli for a training about this important new research.

It can be confusing. Depending on which party you listen to, the carbon tax—or "price on pollution"—will either cost you or save you money. And both sides are using accurate information, just differently.But what isn't debatable is that the government's signature policy has been under unprecedented attack over the past year, and the increase that kicked in on April 1 was met with protests and scorn around the country. But will you actually feel it, and if so, when? Where does the policy stand five years after implementation? And is it beginning to die a death of 1,000 cuts?GUEST: Cormac Mac Sweeney, Parliament Hill reporter, CityNews We love feedback at The Big Story, as well as suggestions for future episodes.

China. Inflation. Trump. In this week's episode of The Weekly Briefing from Capital Economics, Neil Shearing addresses some of the questions which kept coming up during a recent round of client meetings in the Middle East and Asia. (00.00-10:15)Also on the show, Paul Dales and Ruth Gregory from our UK team preview the coming week's Spring Budget and discuss why the UK's fiscal constraints mean that the winner of this year's general election faces some ugly choices. (12:19-20:57)Plus, as the European carbon price falls to fresh lows, Caroline Bain and David Oxley talk about the forces weighing on prices, but also why market reforms should see prices turn around over the medium-term.

As the energy density of batteries continues to increase even as costs keep declining, the stationary energy storage market is booming, with investment growing by over 7x over the last few years – from $5 billion in 2020 to over $35 billion in 2023 – and with battery installations tripling just last year alone. While an influx of storage is certainly needed to integrate the vast amount of renewables we need to fully decarbonize the grid, the storage we are adding to the grid is not always or even usually reducing overall carbon emissions. In fact, too often new batteries are resulting in positive net new emissions – an outcome almost no one wants. In this episode, Chad Reed chats with Jacob Mansfield and Emma Konet of Tierra Climate and Adam Reeve of REsurety to learn more about the efforts of the Energy Storage Solutions Consortium (ESSC), which seeks to align the economic incentives of the storage market with truly accelerating grid decarbonization.Links:Energy Storage Solutions Consortium (ESSC)Charging Towards Zero: Harnessing Batteries and Carbon Contracts to Accelerate Grid DecarbonizationDecarbonization: Stocks and flows, abundance and scarcity, net zero Episode recorded February 14, 2024 Email your feedback to Chad, Gil, and Hilary at climatepositive@hasi.com or tweet them to @ClimatePosiPod.

Darren and Graham Outlawed Round Up, some stuff that we should be talking about! Still lots going on. The Government is taking hits in Canada and that is actually probably waking more people up than anything else right now. Meanwhile there is talk of Carbon passports, more Climate Taxes, as the elites meet about our future.   Carbon Price to raise revenues - from COP 28, Tiktok message from the Galactic Federation - hurry up already and bring on Catastrophic Disclosure, Canada begins consultations on Red Dress Alert system for missing ingenious women, gender diverse and two spirits.... WHA? MAID in Canada, "we are purposely trained to exterminate those who are suicidal". The soft coup of the WEF is talked about with a clip from Dr. Ness in the EU.   Apparently 2 people died in waiting rooms in Montreal hospitals, one man was waiting 12 hours.. 20 patients had waiting for more than 48 hours.   Darren brings the anniversary of the end of Prohibition, 90 years ago. It only lasted 13 years. Did it help?  What does 'have her words taken down' mean when Congresswoman Lee says that? When Riley Gaines and someone else doesn't want men competing in women's sports. What is going on here?   New ruling allows for indefinite detention of Unvaccinated at Governor's whim.   In the second part we chat about pilot incapacitations, The NZ data controversy over Jab deaths, Steve Kirsch's graphs about it, peaking at 6 months post last jab. Is the whistleblower in jail? Would he be if this wasn't real and accurate data? Are the 11,000 exemptions elites and politicians or just health care workers etc. Is everyone jumping the gun on this one?   What about the paper documenting the 17 million world wide deaths due to jab? We play clip of Dr. Rancourt and others talking about the paper.   We play some amazing Old clips of a Doctor coming to the realization about Western based medical practices. Well studied and trained and then committed suicide after these words. Right to chose no matter the greater good. Old clip of African's talking about the oral polio vaccine and the disaster it was.   To gain access to the second half of show and our Plus feed for audio and podcast please clink the link http://www.grimericaoutlawed.ca/support.   For second half of video (when applicable and audio) go to our Substack and Subscribe.   https://grimericaoutlawed.substack.com/ or to our Locals  https://grimericaoutlawed.locals.com/ or Rokfin www.Rokfin.com/Grimerica   If you would rather watch: https://rokfin.com/stream/42117   https://rumble.com/v3zt54t-outlawed-round-up-12.5.23-psychedelic-zelinsky.-nz-data-breach-and-montreal.html   https://grimericaoutlawed.locals.com/post/4960831/outlawed-round-up-12-5-23-psychedelic-zelinsky-nz-data-breach-and-montreal-mayor-collapse   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kCq1rNoC6AAmaid   Links to stuff we chatted about during the first part: https://globalnews.ca/news/10145244/canada-consultations-missing-indigenous-alert-system/?utm_source=%40globalbc&utm_medium=Twitter&utm_medium=Twitter&utm_source=%40globalnews   https://montreal.ctvnews.ca/montreal-mayor-valerie-plante-collapses-during-press-conference-1.6674017   https://twitter.com/howisthismylif/status/1731913120837222762   https://twitter.com/ElanderNews/status/1731585832123781619   https://twitter.com/robinmonotti/status/1731021677981478930   https://twitter.com/Icculus13/status/1730629086572052658   https://www.theepochtimes.com/epochtv/new-ruling-allows-for-indefinite-detention-of-unvaccinated-at-governors-whim-facts-matter-5536821?utm_source=partner&utm_campaign=vigilantf&src_src=partner&src_cmp=vigilantf&utm_medium=email   https://www.historyextra.com/period/20th-century/prohibition-history-facts-what-when-start-why-passed-america-ban-alcohol/   https://twitter.com/greg_price11/status/1732138612899078392   Links to stuff we chatted about during the last part:   https://substack.com/app-link/post?publication_id=548354&post_id=139352206&utm_source=post-email-title&utm_campaign=email-post-title&isFreemail=true&r=24pqe&token=eyJ1c2VyX2lkIjozNTc5MjA2LCJwb3N0X2lkIjoxMzkzNTIyMDYsImlhdCI6MTcwMTQ4NjQ5OSwiZXhwIjoxNzA0MDc4NDk5LCJpc3MiOiJwdWItNTQ4MzU0Iiwic3ViIjoicG9zdC1yZWFjdGlvbiJ9._Td5eKmsJ1-205Lb-HqRp4ubZ29Kr9530l0PQ7Ji6kM   https://twitter.com/denisrancourt/status/1731829276310127032   https://substack.com/app-link/post?publication_id=975571&post_id=139404735&utm_source=post-email-title&utm_campaign=email-post-title&isFreemail=true&r=24pqe&token=eyJ1c2VyX2lkIjozNTc5MjA2LCJwb3N0X2lkIjoxMzk0MDQ3MzUsImlhdCI6MTcwMTY1MDg2NSwiZXhwIjoxNzA0MjQyODY1LCJpc3MiOiJwdWItOTc1NTcxIiwic3ViIjoicG9zdC1yZWFjdGlvbiJ9._5aBk6pChvRHOfCR_UFkORi00iKy9k75rUVGK54Bhxo   https://substack.com/app-link/post?publication_id=548354&post_id=139001099&utm_source=post-email-title&utm_campaign=email-post-title&isFreemail=true&r=24pqe&token=eyJ1c2VyX2lkIjozNTc5MjA2LCJwb3N0X2lkIjoxMzkwMDEwOTksImlhdCI6MTcwMTc4MTI3NCwiZXhwIjoxNzA0MzczMjc0LCJpc3MiOiJwdWItNTQ4MzU0Iiwic3ViIjoicG9zdC1yZWFjdGlvbiJ9.PBUghpgagxQRkWCuGtfZDnPTyzXoSARr7tm9IuULOi8   https://www.instagram.com/p/C0Vy00KOZIv/   https://vigilantfox.substack.com/p/nz-whistleblower-arrested-for-exposing?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=email-half-post&r=2at6hc   https://makismd.substack.com/p/video-clip-drdenis-rancourt-phd-interviewed?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=email-half-post&r=2at6hc   https://drkevinstillwagon.substack.com/p/another-pilot-incapacitation?r=o9wy4&utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email   Help support the show, because we can't do it without ya.

Hello Earthlings! In today's episode, our host Lisa Ann Pinkerton (CEO of Technica Communications), and guest Neal Dikeman (founder and Partner at Energy Transition Ventures, Chairman of Cleantech.org) continue their discussion on the politics, legislation, and ethics of carbon credit and carbon offset. Lisa Ann and Neal delve deeply into the conflicting objectives behind using carbon credits to counterbalance carbon emissions and critically assess whether this approach is genuinely effective or merely a futile expenditure.Neal also provides a candid critique of corporate strategies for addressing climate change, highlighting how some companies minimally contribute to environmental conservation. He also emphasizes the urgency of transitioning from our current energy sources, which are unsustainable, to renewable ones. Neal's insights reveal the stark reality of our current complacent attitude towards climate change and the potential dire consequences for humanity if this issue remains unaddressed!Key Topics: Neal and Lisa Ann talk about political polarization and the urgent need for active communication Neal emphasizes the importance of optimism and taking action in addressing climate change, despite the complexity and challenges involvedVoices on The Show: Neal Dikeman, Founder and partner at Energy Transition VenturesLinkedIn: Neal DikemanLisa Ann Pinkerton, Earthlings 2.0 Host, CEO of Technica Communications, and Founder of Women in Cleantech and Sustainability LinkedIn: Lisa Ann PinkertonX: Lisa Ann Pinkerton Instagram: @LisiAnniTechnica Communications Women in Cleantech and SustainabilityMentioned in The Show: Energy Transition Ventures website https://energytransitionventures.com/

THE ZOOMER SQUAD 12:00-12:30 Marissa Lennox is joined by Bill VanGorder, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Policy Officer of CARP, Anthony Quinn, Chief Community Officer of CARP and Peter Muggeridge,  Senior Editor of Zoomer Magazine. Five Premiers from Saskatchewan, Alberta, Ontario, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia are calling for a meeting with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and asking Ottawa to extend the carbon price exemption to all types of home heating and not just home heating oil. Meanwhile, an Alberta CPP exit panel has been launched to hear directly from Albertans about whether they should part ways with the Canada Pension Plan. Earlier in the year, an Alberta government funded study found that the province could save as much as $5 billion if it pulled out of the CPP and entered a different scheme. And, Toronto is seeing a rise in hate related crimes: In recent weeks amid the Israel-Hamas war. Does Toronto have a plan to address this issue effectively? AN UPDATE ON THE ISRAEL-HAMAS WAR 12:30-12:45 Marissa Lennox is now joined by Lidar Grave-Lazi, ILTV's News Host and Editor-in-Chief based in Tel Aviv, Israel. Lidar gives us the latest update on the war between Israel and Hamas. Israel has been in contact with staff at Al-Shifa hospital staff in Gaza to arrange for the safe evacuation of patients and staff. The IDF said that it provided as much as 300 jerry cans of fuel to the hospital for medical operation purposes but that Hamas has prevented the hospital from accepting the fuel. Meanwhile, Israel explains that there is major Hamas terrorist infrastructure underneath the hospital. And, tensions continue to escalate on Israel's Northern front with Lebanon where Iran-backed Hezbollah has been firing anti-tank missiles on communities in Israel. And, the Israeli embassy in Washington is arranging for a screening of the footage of the horrific massacre of Israeli civilians by Hamas on Oct. 7 to members of U.S. congress. DISGRACED FASHION MOGUL PETER NYGARD FOUND GUILTY 12:45-1 PM Marissa Lennox is now joined by Toronto-based criminal defence lawyer, Ari Goldkind. Over the weekend, disgraced Canadian fashion mogul Peter Nygard was found guilty on 4 counts of sexual assault at his Toronto court trial. A sentencing hearing is set for November 21st. His son, Kai Nygard, was at the verdict and said this of his father:  “It hurts me to see all of these things. I knew a different man. I got a different version of him and for me, that bond was real, those moments were real...Something evil in there...There's something perverse.” Ari reacts to the latest.

The 24th World Petroleum Congress (WPC) will be held in Calgary from September 17 to 21, 2023. The conference takes place every three years and has been described as the world's leading assembly for the petroleum industry. The organizers are expecting 15,000 visitors and 5,000 delegates from over 100 countries.  This week, we hear from Lisa Baiton, President and CEO of the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers (CAPP), and Mike Sommers, President and CEO of the American Petroleum Institute (API). Both organizations will be at the WPC in Calgary.  Here are some of the questions Jackie and Peter asked: With Russia's invasion of Ukraine, has energy security become a greater focus in North America? Does the United States still consider Canadian oil and gas foreign? With the recent run-up in oil prices, are you concerned about how consumers will react to higher prices for petroleum fuels?  Is the oil and gas industry reducing GHG emissions? What is your response to people who want oil and gas consumption to end soon? Do you think greenfield oil or gas pipelines can be built between the United States and Canada?  What is the outlook for LNG exports from the US and Canada?  Content referenced in this podcast:The World Petroleum Congress registration information: https://www.24wpc.com/  The Canadian conventional oil and natural gas sector emissions fell 24 percent in the last decade (CAPP analysis).  Please review our disclaimer at: https://www.arcenergyinstitute.com/disclaimer/X (Twitter): @arcenergyinstLinkedIn: @ARC Energy Research InstituteSubscribe to ARC Energy Ideas PodcastApple PodcastsGoogle PodcastsAmazon MusicSpotify

The United Kingdom (UK) has had to balance its net-zero ambitions with energy security after suffering from a price shock in 2021 that increased the cost of energy and forced them to stop importing Russian natural gas. This week, Lord Martin Callanan, the UK's Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Minister for Energy Efficiency and Green Finance) at the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero, joins the podcast. His responsibilities include CCUS, hydrogen, green finance, energy efficiency, and emissions trading. Here are some of the questions Jackie and Peter asked Lord Callanan: How do you respond to those that oppose the licensing of new North Sea oil and gas developments? Has the UK changed its policies or subsidies to compete with the US Inflation Reduction Act (IRA)?  How can a carbon-market approach with price volatility compete against the certainty of the IRA-style, subsidy-based policy? How does the UK structure offshore wind, nuclear, CCUS, and hydrogen incentives to attract capital?   Content referenced on this podcast:  See the live power generation on the UK's National Grid: https://grid.iamkate.com/ See the latest carbon clearing prices in the UK Emissions Auctions: https://www.ice.com/marketdata/reports/278  Please review our disclaimer at: https://www.arcenergyinstitute.com/disclaimer/X (Twitter): @arcenergyinstLinkedIn: @ARC Energy Research InstituteSubscribe to ARC Energy Ideas PodcastApple PodcastsGoogle PodcastsAmazon MusicSpotify

Ruth Abraham and Lila Powell, interns for Citizens Climate Radio, take over the show, and take a deep dive into the world of carbon pricing.  To see our full notes and full transcript visit our show page.  Citizens Climate Lobby's Carbon Pricing page states: “A strong, economy-wide price on carbon could reduce America's carbon pollution by 50% by 2030, putting us on track to reach net zero [carbon production] by 2050.” Carbon pricing is an economic solution to climate change. When Marshall Saunders first envisioned the creation of CCL, Cap-and-Trade was the primary way lawmakers heard about carbon pricing. But through relentless messaging and volunteer lobbying, the discussion has shifted to carbon fee and dividend.  The ultimate goal? Incentivize both businesses and individuals to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions. Citizens' Climate Lobby advocates for a carbon fee and dividend, an economy-wide fee that is then returned to citizens. At the point of extraction, a fee will be placed on fossil fuels. This collected store of cash will then be distributed back to individuals and in turn, flow through the economy, incentivizing both businesses and people to slowly but surely rely on renewables.  Naomi Shimberg is a self-described aspiring economist who hopes to research the design of environmental and energy policy.  A recent graduate at Yale with a B.A. in Ethics, Politics, and Economics, Shimberg was the senior producer at Pricing Nature where she produced and hosted episodes of Pricing Nature, a podcast on the economics of climate change. She spends her time explaining externalities and the infamous  “social cost of carbon.” Shimberg also establishes that environmental inequities are essential to determining an appropriate climate price. Furthermore, she mentions that while it is efficient in reducing pollution it's not an entirely equitable tool.  Nokwanda Maseko is now a Senior Economist at Trade and Industrial Policy Strategies' with a background in development economics. Nokwanda conducts economic research, with a focus on industrial policy, trade, and climate change. Gender and the Just Transition in South Africa is a topic Nokwanda enjoys and is able to work on professionally. In this episode, Nokwanda says that although carbon pricing can help reduce emissions and promote innovation, it can also potentially increase costs for marginalized communities. Nokwanda discusses how general development as well as the transportation, agriculture, and energy production sectors in South Africa have several factors to consider when envisioning a green and equitable future.  The benefits of carbon pricing include but are not limited to affordable clean energy, saved lives due to the restoration of clean air, and the innovation of American businesses.  Nerd Corner   Dana Nuccitelli highlights climate research (and makes it understandable) for fellow nerds and the nerd curious! In this episode Dana explains the basics behind addressing pollution and equity through carbon fee and dividend.  Check out Dana's post about how far and fast a price on carbon can drive down emissions within the United States here.  Good News Story Citizens Climate Radio host, Peterson Toscano, shares good news about the Conservative Climate Caucus in the House of Representatives.

A new report examines the economic and climate impacts of Pennsylvania joining the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative, now stalled in court. --- The Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative, or RGGI, was the first major carbon market to be established in the United States. Since its inception in 2009, RGGI has contributed to a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions from the electricity sector in a market that now spans 11 eastern states. Yet RGGI has recently seen its expansion stalled in Pennsylvania, one of the nation's largest emitters of carbon dioxide, and a state where the struggle over the future of the energy industry, and the roles to be played by fossil fuels and clean energy, has been particularly intense. Authors of a recent report on expected economic and climate impacts of Pennsylvania's participation in RGGI discuss their findings, and explore the political and legal battles that are now taking place over the market's future in the state. That future may ultimately lie in the hands of a newly elected governor who inherited RGGI from his predecessor, but who has yet to publicly commit to the market's development. But first, a state court must render its decision on the legality of Pennsylvania's participation in the RGGI market. Angela Pachon is research director at the Kleinman Center for Energy Policy. Maya Domeshek is a research associate at Resources for the Future. Their recent report, “The Prospects for Pennsylvania as a RGGI Member” is a joint publication of the Kleinman Center and Resources for the Future.

This week on the podcast our special guest is John Dillon, former Senior Vice President, Policy and Corporate Counsel at Business Council of Canada.  First, John joins Jackie and Peter in a discussion about the Alberta Election that is being held on May 29, 2023.  What can we learn from the past record of the two leading parties, the United Conservative Party (UCP) and the New Democratic Party (NDP)? What do we know about their plans for the future of Alberta's energy industry?  Next, we ask John to reflect on his 32 years at the forefront of climate change policy in Canada.  How have corporate attitudes towards reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions changed over that time? What policy changes are needed for Canada to make big reductions in GHG emissions by 2030 and achieving net zero by 2050?  Please review our disclaimer at: https://www.arcenergyinstitute.com/disclaimer/  Check us out on social media:Twitter: @arcenergyinstLinkedIn: @ARC Energy Research InstituteInstagram: @arcenergyresearchinstituteYouTube: @arcenergyresearchinstitute9600Subscribe to ARC Energy Ideas PodcastApple PodcastsGoogle podcastsAmazon musicSpotify

Seaweed is being advanced as a potentially important future food source, the greater farming and consumption of which could avoid environmental impacts associated with other agricultural production, especially of beef. Scott Spillias has recently submitted a PhD thesis at the University of Queensland on seaweed farming, and he's been getting a lot of attention regarding his findings on seaweed's potential. Show host Gene Tunny and Tim Hughes talk with Scott about the potential of using seaweed as an alternative food source. Please get in touch with any questions, comments and suggestions by emailing us at contact@economicsexplored.com or sending a voice message via https://www.speakpipe.com/economicsexplored. What's covered in EP188The importance of plant-based foods in our diets.

The Government's plan to prevent carbon prices from rising is costing taxpayers half a billion dollars. In late 2022, Cabinet rejected Climate Change Commission advice to change Emissions Trading Scheme settings to enable the carbon price to rise more than it had in the past. NZ Herald Wellington business editor Jenee Tibshraeny explained that Cabinet's decision to prevent the carbon price from rising saw the price of carbon fall significantly. Jenee Tibshraeny says the Government gets revenue when companies surrender units for emitting, and the decreased price of carbon lowered the value of the units- creating a $3.2 billion deficit.   LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of Add To Cart, we are joined by Tom Ferrier, Founder of Greener - a service and an app to help retailers and consumers measure and reduce their environmental impact - and power the green economy. Tom will explain it in this episode but he is helping retailers reduce and offset their emissions - while attracting like-minded customers who are interested in sustainability - almost an informal loyalty program. And for customers, he is helping them know what the heck an actual carbon tonne is - and whether that is good is bad. Hint: the average Australian is responsible for 15 tonnes - the goal, according to Tom, should be two. Tom and the Greener team already have brands on board including Koala, T2, Afends, Microsoft, Brewdog, Modibodi, and Bared, they have raised over $4m from investors such as NAB and recently partnered with the Australian Retailers Association - it's a great start. Today, Tom shares the Greener mission and exactly how it works for both retailers and consumers. He shares the steps that retailers can take to have the biggest impact of reducing their environmental impact, and he shares how it took one person to interrupt him over a glass of red to totally change the course of his life.

The International Chamber of Shipping wants the industry's global regulator to adopt a levy on carbon as early as next year. We talk to deputy secretary general Simon Bennett about why the group wants to go so fast. We also hear from University of Oslo's professor Erik Rosaeg and Zero Emissions Ship Technology Association secretary general Madadh MacLaine.

The Emission Trading Systems is the cap-and-trade carbon market that Europe has been using since 2005 to decarbonize its economy. Companies have to pay to pollute, and this week that price hit an all-time high as it traded for over 100 euros/ton. In the first segment of today's show Na'im Merchant and Asa Kamer discuss the significance of that milestone, what it might mean for the CDR industry, and news that Lanzatech became the first carbon capture company ever to go public. On the other side of the planet a different government made steps towards capitalizing on the money flowing towards carbon markets. Earlier this month, Alaska's GOP Governor proposed a package of bills that would expand the state's ability to store carbon via both forestry projects and underground storage of CO2 if passed. Will these ambitions contribute to actually increasing carbon sequestration? On the second segment of today's show we explored this topic with one of the people behind Alaska's push toward carbon management: the state Department of Natural Resource's Deputy Commissioner John Crowther.

This week on the podcast we discuss the Canadian Federal Government's July 2022 discussion document “Options to Cut Oil and Gas Sector Greenhouse Gas Emissions to Achieve 2030 Goals and Net-Zero by 2050.”    Joining the discussion is our guest Sander Duncanson, Partner, Regulatory, Environmental, Indigenous and Land at Osler, a Canadian business law firm.There are two policy options being proposed.  Option one is a new cap-and-trade system for the oil and gas sector in addition to the existing provincial carbon pricing systems already in place.  Option two proposes to modify the existing carbon pricing systems in each province, setting more stringent rules for oil and gas.Jackie, Peter and Sander express a number of concerns about the proposal; the inefficiency of pricing carbon higher for one sector of the economy, the potential for unintended consequences from overlapping policies, including the potential to harm to smaller oil and gas producers, and the policy could potentially face legal challenges from the provinces creating uncertainty that could ultimately slow down investment and reduction in GHG emissions. The discussion document is asking for feedback to be submitted by September 30, 2022 and sent to PlanPetrolieretGazier-OilandGasPlan@ec.gc.ca. We encourage people to participate and express their views on the proposed cap on emissions.Content referenced in this podcast:“Eradicating the Smoke Nuisance” from Energyphile.orgOptions to Cut Oil and Gas Sector Greenhouse Gas Emissions to Achieve 2030 Goals and Net-Zero by 2050.”    Please review the ARC Energy Institute disclaimer.

The idea of capturing the CO2 emissions from industry and locking them up is nothing new.  It's been going on for decades in some places.  Norway's state-owned oil company Equinor has been holing away a million tons of CO2 a year for a long time.  But overall, CCS – carbon capture and storage – has […]

Australia has everything it needs to produce electricity - coal, gas, sun, and wind. Yet we've wound up with energy shortages and huge price hikes. How did we get here - why is our energy system in such a mess? And what can we do to fix it?

This week we welcome to the podcast Jared Dziuba, Oil & Gas Market Specialist, BMO Nesbitt Burns and Rachel Walsh, Carbon Innovation Analyst, BMO Nesbitt Burns.Jared and Rachel have authored several reports on the topic of CCS, including, “The Outer Limits: Exploring the Cost (Opportunity) of Canada's Net Zero Pathways” and following the recent news of the federal tax credit for CCUS in Canada, they published “Durable Carbon Offset Revenue Still Needed to Drive CCUS.” Here are some of the questions Peter and Jackie asked them: Considering the new federal tax credit, what carbon price is needed to support new investments? How likely is it that the carbon credit market in Alberta will trade at this level?  Could the actual costs for building large scale CCS projects be greater than expected? How is Alberta allocating the subsurface pore space for storing carbon? If you would like to have access to BMO Nesbitt Burns research on CCS, please contact Jared directly at Jared.Dziuba@bmo.comPlease review BMO Capital Markets disclosure at:  https://researchglobal0.bmocapitalmarkets.com/public-disclosure/ Please review ARC Energy Institute disclaimer at: https://www.arcenergyinstitute.com/disclaimer/

Dan Dolan of the New England Power Generators Association explains his members' concerns with subsidized resources in the region's wholesale power market, and the recent ballot initiative in Maine affecting a 145-mile, $1 billion transmission line designed to bring subsidized Canadian hydropower to Massachusetts. The market overseen by ISO-New England has resulted in cost savings for consumers and dramatic reductions in emissions, including greenhouse gases that contribute to climate change, Dolan says. A big missing piece of the equation, Dolan explains, is an economy wide carbon price that would even more rapidly drive the region to a clean-energy grid, and more effectively promote EVs and other measures needed as part of a comprehensive solution to the climate emergency.Support the show
