Road maps articulate a provincial government鈥檚 vision, objectives, and plans for how the province will meet its energy needs on the road to net zero," Chris Ragan and Rick Smith explains.聽</p> Mon, 08 Jul 2024 19:21:22 +0000 webfull 200732 at /channels /channels/channels/event/mcisce-engage-seminar-hype-hope-355632 <h2>Energy Transition: From Hype to Hope</h2> <h3>Discussion about select emerging battery and carbon free fuel technologies that could contribute to achieving a global energy transition.</h3> Thu, 22 Feb 2024 15:22:53 +0000 webfull 198047 at /channels /channels/channels/event/mcisce-learn-seminar-communicating-your-research-355115 <h2>Communicating Your Research</h2> <div> <div>聽</div> </div> Tue, 30 Jan 2024 19:41:20 +0000 webfull 197390 at /channels /channels/channels/event/mcisce-interconnect-conference-351730 <p>Join us at the 69热视频 Centre for Innovation in Storage and Conversion of Energy (McISCE) Interconnect Conference on October 11, 2023, at Redpath Hall, from 12:30-7:00 pm.</p> Fri, 06 Oct 2023 21:49:15 +0000 webfull 193650 at /channels /channels/channels/news/chris-ragan-canada-must-upgrade-its-electricity-grid-globe-and-mail-345767 <p>January 27, 2023 |聽Director聽<a href="//www.mcgill.ca/maxbellschool/our-people/mpp-teaching-faculty/christopher-ragan">Chris Ragan</a>聽 wrote that Canada must embark on a historic build-out of its power systems to ensure continued prosperity as the demand for clean energy accelerates in Canada.

A team of researchers led by 69热视频 has used data from 60 million individual American households to look into how carbon emissions caused by household energy use vary by race and ethnicity across the country.

He warns that, given the difficulty of securing approval for energy infrastructure in Canada, "the country will want to find ways to get through tough approval processes to run more east-west energy grids".聽</p> <p><a href="https://beta.ctvnews.ca/national/politics/2019/5/24/1_4435492.html">Read the full article here聽</a></p> Fri, 24 May 2019 18:37:05 +0000 webfull 149560 at /channels /channels/channels/event/report-launch-decarbonized-northeast-electricity-sector-value-regional-integration-287520 <h2>A Decarbonized Northeast Electricity Sector: The value of regional integration</h2> <h3>D茅carboniser l鈥櫭﹍ectricit茅 du Nord-est nord-am茅ricain : un mod猫le pour analyser les gains d鈥檜ne approche r茅gionale</h3> <p>聽</p> Tue, 05 Jun 2018 18:34:31 +0000 webfull 138376 at /channels /channels/news/sustainable-iron-catalyst-clean-hydrogenation-229198 <blockquote> <p>Written by Emma Eley<br />Published on June 27, 2013 | <a href="http://www.rsc.org/chemistryworld/2013/06/polymer-supported-iron-catalyst-green-hydrogenation" target="_blank">Royal Society of Chemistry, Chemistry World</a></p> </blockquote> <p>"An international team of chemists (from 69热视频 and the RIKEN Institute, Japan) has reported a clean and green way to perform one of the most important industrial reactions for pharmaceutical and petrochemical synthesis.
