Spotlight on Alberta Power: An Interview with Mike Law, CEO at AESO

On this week’s podcast our guest is Mike Law, President and Chief Executive Officer at the Alberta Electric System Operator (AESO). Here are some of the questions that Jackie and Peter asked Mike: Are consumers exposed to the volatile power price in Alberta’s deregulated electric market?  Why are electricity prices in Alberta higher now? Are the costs for transmission too high? Is net-zero electricity by 2035 achievable?  What is the current status of the federal government’s Clean Electricity Standard?  In a deregulated market, how can Alberta ensure that enough clean electricity generation capacity is constructed by 2035?  Do you think a pan-Canadian grid is part of the solution for achieving net-zero electricity?  Other information referenced in this podcast: AESO’s Net Zero Emissions Pathways Report (June 2022) AESO’s Real Time Dashboard of Alberta’s Power System AESO Twitter @theAESO   Please review our disclaimer at: https://www.arcenergyinstitute.com/disclaimer/  To see a transcript of this podcast, visit the link (scroll part way down the page): Spotlight on Alberta Power: An Interview with Mike Law, CEO at AESO (arcenergyinstitute.com)
