2017 CCRE Energy Leaders Roundtable, Hockley Valley, Ontario

Annual Energy Leaders Roundtable-Hockley Valley, 2016

The 2017 CCRE Annual Energy Leaders Roundtable has become an essential forum for thought leaders to consider the critical energy issues of today and tomorrow. The Roundtable built on its 5-year success by bringing together speakers and leaders in the energy industry for brief presentations that provided open dialogue and a candid exchange of views and networking amongst participants.

We were pleased to have Anthony Haines, President and Chief Executive Officer of Toronto Hydro Corporation, and Elizabeth May, Leader of the Green Party of Canada and its first elected Member of Parliament representing Saanich-Gulf Islands in southern Vancouver Island, deliver keynote addresses.

The keynote addresses and presentations included the following sessions:

  • Evolve or Revolve: The Utility Business Model
  • Public Opinion and the Energy Sector
  • The Economics and the Politics of Carbon Pricing
  • Technology Innovation and Policy Forum Report Out
  • A Roundtable Discussion on Ontario’s Fair Hydro Plan
  • LDC Ownership, Governance, and Performance
  • Developing Energy for Canada’s Future
  • Getting Energy to Customers: Developing Energy Infrastructure Challenges and Opportunities
  • Politics and the Energy Sector

The Council is a group of volunteers who have an interest in promoting open debate about energy issues. We do not represent a particular interest group and attempt to bring together a broad range of stakeholders who share an interest in promoting good governance and public policy for Canada’s energy sector.
