Description

In this episode, host Tyler Chisholm is joined by Mark Poweska, President and CEO of ENMAX, to discuss Alberta’s evolving energy landscape. Mark brings 30+ years of experience across BC, Ontario, and Alberta’s power systems, offering a candid look at how deregulated markets function and what makes Alberta’s model so distinctive. He explains how ENMAX balances a competitive retail and generation business with regulated infrastructure and why diversification—including operations in Maine—has been key to its long-term stability. Mark also shares insights on Alberta’s leadership in renewables, the critical need for dispatchable power, and what role technologies like nuclear and storage might play in our future. This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about energy policy, electrification, or how Alberta can lead in sustainable, affordable, and reliable power.
