My Honors Thesis explored the political issues surrounding the transition to renewable energy in my home province of Alberta, Canada. In particular, it explored how political leaders may deal with the displaced workforce resulting from declining activities in the coal and other mining industries over time. It also explored issues and challenges with meeting energy demands using renewables and the costs associated with integrating distributed energy resourses into the province's energy mix.
