This new series of talks with Dan McTeague & Jean-Pierre Kiekens is about electric vehicles and their multiple implications for energy, mobility, affordability, economic development and public policy.
While electric vehicles are being vigorously promoted by governments, particularly in North America and in Europe, the implications of this rapid transition to such vehicles are little understood. This series of talks, geared towards both the general public and policy makers, aims at discussing those implications and help understand the issues, challenges and opportunities associated with transitioning to EVs.
The talks involve primarily Dan McTeague and Jean-Pierre Kiekens, yet guest experts will also participate. Dan McTeague is a well-known energy expert, President of Canadians for Affordable Energy and a former member of the federal parliament in Canada.
Jean-Pierre Kiekens is a policy analyst with background in engineering and economic development - a topic he lectured in Belgium prior to moving to Canada.
The talks will initially center on 10 topics identified as particularly important. The talks will be content rich yet be typically limited to 30 to 40 minutes.
Additional sessions, with guest experts, will take place afterwards.
The talks will be available both as videos and as podcast episodes, on platforms such as Apple and Spotify.
This first talk presents an introduction to the series of talks and to the 10 topics to be discussed afterwards.
