Switching from fossil fuel to electric processes has two important impacts in Newfoundland and Labrador - (1) it helps reduce our contribution to climate change, and (2) it increases the domestic demand for electricity, assisting in rate mitigation. In this series of presentations we learn about what steps towards electrification are being taken locally in short term, and what the potential is in the long term according to an organization that works towards making Norway a 'fully electrified society'.

2020 has seen increasing interest on a global scale in the important role that hydrogen might play in the energy transition. With water as its byproduct, if produced through environmentally sound processes, hydrogen may be the gold standard fuel of the future. In this series of presentations we get the 101 on hydrogen, an exploration of what opportunities it may present for Newfoundland and Labrador, and insight on a pilot project taking place in Iceland that may be of great interest.
