It’s cold. But your natural gas furnace keeps your family warm. You need energy for your expanding greenhouse operation? Natural gas is there. Holiday barbecue? We got you covered. With this poll, we’re going to test your knowledge of just how integral natural gas is to the Canadian economy and to your own needs. The Canadian Gas Association released a document entitled Bettering Canadian Lives: Harnessing the Canadian Gas Energy Opportunity. It’s a vision that sets the table for Canada to succeed in harnessing the enormous opportunity presented to the country by natural gas, renewable natural gas (RNG) and hydrogen. You can find it here: https://lnkd.in/gMst6VDn. Tip, the correct answer to the poll is in that document. #NaturalGas #RNG #Hydrogen #CrucialEnergy Canadian Gas Association 

The Multi-Fuel Technology Platform patented by Innovative Fuel Systems is a retrofit system that can be used on existing trucks “and it allows a diesel engine to offset diesel fuel usage with cleaner burning fuels such as natural gas in the form of compressed natural gas (CNG), renewable natural gas (RNG) or hydrogen,” according to a case study by KAG Canada, North America’s largest tank truck transporter. #CNG #RNG #Trucks

“Gas energy, including natural gas, renewable natural gas and hydrogen, is delivered to over 20 million Canadians, meeting nearly 40% of the country’s energy needs – double that of electricity,” said Timothy M. Egan, President and CEO of the Canadian Gas Association. “It plays a critical role in keeping homes warm, industries competitive, and energy affordable. However, Canada is without a vision that will attract the next generation of investment to fuel our collective progress on energy. Bettering Canadian Lives: Harnessing the Canadian Gas Energy Opportunity is our blueprint for preserving and enhancing affordability, reliability, and low-emission energy for Canadians.” Read more: https://lnkd.in/gMst6VDn #CanadianGasEnergy #NaturalGas #EnergyInnovation #AffordableEnergy #ReliableEnergy #EnergyPolicy #EnergySecurity 

Michele Harradence, Executive Vice-President and President, Gas Distribution and Storage with Enbridge, takes a deep dive into what Canada can do to make domestic energy expansion more attractive for investors. That in-depth look comes with a stark warning: “The harsh reality is we will not meet our future energy needs at today’s pace of investment,” Harradence says in the article. It’s worth a read. #Enbridge #EnergyFuture #Investment https://lnkd.in/eSrpp-ev

Enbridge Gas has a long history of supporting the communities where we operate, and safety is our top priority. In fact, we have invested $450,000 in Safe Community Project Zero, and over the past 16 years the program has provided more than 101,000 alarms to Ontario fire departments, with the goal of bringing the number of residential fire and carbon monoxide deaths to zero. We are also committed to educating the public about the importance of having fuel-burning appliances inspected annually by a licenced contractor and installing and testing combination smoke and carbon monoxide alarms as a vital second line of defence. #ProjectZero #CO #SafetyFirst https://lnkd.in/eMjBw5FD

Members of our Enbridge Gas team joined the Utah Food Bank to serve over 300 children from local after-school programs a warm Thanksgiving meal through the Kids Cafe program. The evening featured delicious food, laughter, and unforgettable moments as kids enjoyed turkey, mashed potatoes, and pumpkin pie while dancing along with the Trash Panda Drum Group. This event is more than a meal—it’s about community, connection, and ensuring every child feels supported during the holiday season. We are proud to partner with Utah Food Bank to continue this meaningful tradition. Thank you to everyone who helped make the evening such a success. #EnbridgeGas #CommunityCommitment #KidsCafe #Thanksgiving #Utah

Farmers and Ontarians at large are asking for more access to affordable and reliable energy, and #Enbridge is committed to meeting that demand, Mike Gladstone, Vice-President of Utility Public Affairs and Communications at Enbridge, said at the Ontario Federation of Agriculture’s annual general meeting on Wednesday. The Ontario Federation of Agriculture (OFA) annual meeting is a three-day event that brings together farmers, industry leaders, and policymakers to address key issues shaping Ontario’s agricultural sector. “Here in Ontario, Enbridge Gas serves nearly four million customers, providing affordable and reliable energy to homes, businesses, and industries. Farmers, in particular, depend on natural gas for drying grain, heating greenhouses, and powering operations that are the backbone of rural economies,” Gladstone said during a panel discussion entitled “Powering Agriculture: The Critical Role of Energy Affordability on the Farm.” #NaturalGas is essential, Gladstone said, because it provides twice the energy demand of Ontario’s electricity system and delivers four times the peak electricity capacity at just a quarter of the cost, making natural gas a cornerstone of affordability. Gladstone reminded those in attendance that #EnbridgeGas is just one part of a much larger company. Enbridge Inc. is North America’s leading energy delivery company, fueling economies and enhancing people’s quality of life. For example, Enbridge’s Line 5 is critical to supplying Ontario with #Energy used in the production of fertilizers and propane, critical to fuel grain drying, power irrigation systems, and for HVAC systems to maintain perishable crops and livestock facilities, including barns and brooding pens. The criticality of the gas distribution system is growing, especially in rural communities. In 2023 alone, Enbridge Gas connected over 50,000 new homes and businesses to our system, and every day we receive new requests from across the province. Beyond delivering the energy needs of today, Enbridge is also investing in the future of rural Ontario. Southwest Ontario is home to some of our most important projects and facilities, including the $358 million Panhandle Expansion project, community expansion projects, the Dawn Hub natural gas storage facility, and potentially carbon capture and storage projects which could attract billions of dollars in investments and create tens of thousands of jobs. “These projects are about creating opportunities for rural Ontario,” Gladstone said. #ONPoli #OFA2024 #Farmers #Agriculture
