OEA ENERGYCONFERENCE21

ENERGYCONFERENCE21 is the Ontario energy industry's flagship event. This year’s event is perfectly timed to discuss Ontario’s “Pathways to Net Zero”. The world is starting to reopen following pandemic lockdowns. Ontario is approaching a provincial election in 2022. Further, with a minority government, a federal election appears imminent. Both of these events come at critical time as we look ahead to life after the pandemic and the increasing importance of tackling climate change in the coming years. Come join us as we discuss the key public policy and proposals that will shape Ontario’s energy sector and economy for the next five years and beyond.
