Prospects for public participation in energy transitions in Canada: Householders' interests in hosting, coordinating, and trading electricity at the local level

| Abstract | In Canada, climate change and the rising cost of fossil fuel‐based energy are driving a transition to cleaner local energy systems—combining renewable energy, storage, and smart devices. While these technologies are important, without public support and participation, they will not ensure a just and sustainable transition. In this context, we analyze data from a nationally representative survey (n = 941) of Canadians’ views towards local energy system change, with a focus on three actions (hosting generation, agreeing to external control, and trading electricity) that will be vital. We are interested in overall trends across Canada, though given regional differences and the need to understand the people likely to support these actions, we utilize geographic, socio‐demographic, and political variables to explore variations. In this, four key distinctions were found: females were more likely to support local generation; Quebec residents were more likely to consider coordination by letting an authority take control of their household's appliances; younger Canadians were more interested in all actions; and there was a left‐right divide along political lines, with those supporting left‐leaning parties being more interested in energy management. We locate these findings within broader discussions and close our article with recommendations for further research and policy.
Au Canada, le changement climatique et le coût croissant de l'énergie à base de combustibles fossiles favorisent une transition vers des systèmes d'énergie locaux plus propres, combinant énergies renouvelables, stockage et appareils intelligents. Bien que ces technologies soient importantes, elles ne permettront pas une transition juste et durable sans le soutien et la participation des populations. Dans ce contexte, nous analysons ici les données d'une enquête nationale (n = 941) sur les opinions des Canadiens envers les changements du système d'énergie local, en nous concentrant sur trois éléments essentiels (hébergement de la production, acceptation d'un contrôle externe et échange de l'électricité). Nous nous intéressons aux tendances générales mais nous utilisons différentes variables géographiques, sociodémographiques et politiques pour explorer les différences régionales. Quatre constats clés ont été mis en évidence: les femmes étaient plus enclines à soutenir la production locale; les résidents du Québec étaient plus favorables à laisser une autorité désignée gérer les appareils électroménagers de leur foyer; les jeunes Canadiens étaient plus intéressés par tous les types d'actions possibles et il existait un clivage selon les orientations politiques. Finalement, nous situons ces conclusions dans le cadre de discussions plus larges et concluons notre article par des recommandations en matière de recherche et de politiques publiques.
Transitioning from traditional, centralized energy systems to sustainable and local energy systems will require new, active participation by Canadian householders. Some groups (e.g. females, residents of Quebec, youth, those that are left‐leaning) have higher levels of interest in hosting local generation, letting an external authority control their energy system, and trading electricity. For other characteristics of the Canadian population, there are not statistically‐significant differences regarding interests in acting locally to advance the energy transition. |
