The energy transition is the shift from sources of energy (notably fossil fuels, like oil, gas and coal) that emit greenhouse gases (GHGs) to more sustainable, non-emitting sources, like hydro, wind, nuclear and solar power. The transition involves adopting clean energy technologies, improving energy efficiency and modernizing our energy infrastructure. The goal is to combat climate change by reducing GHG emissions.
For example, a Canadian trucking company invests in a fleet of electric vehicles as part of the energy transition, reducing diesel costs, qualifying for government incentives, and positioning itself to meet the zero-emission requirements expected in fleet regulations over the next decade.
