The Minister of Energy and Natural Resources announced that Andrée-Lise Méthot, Founder and Managing partner of Cycle Capital Management (CCM), was chosen to be part of the first group of experts consulted for the development of Quebec’s next energy plan. This group is mandated to discuss the future of energy in Quebec and provide recommendations to improve Quebec’s leadership in efficiency and innovation in the energy sector.
Six other experts, from Quebec, United States and Norway, specialised in implementing energy productivity solutions and energy public services are also part of the group. Louis Carbonneau, Venture Partner at CCM and principal at Point Law Group is also part of the group.
There will be two other roundtables on renewable energy and hydrocarbons. Ultimately, the intention for this initiative is to stimulate discussion and to arrive at a consensus on a plan to extend Quebec’s leadership in renewable energy, energy efficiency and energy innovation.
