Rationale

Model structural requirements for Canada to meet Paris Agreement commitments through domestic renewable capacity buildout. Covers interprovincial grid, workforce transition, and political resistance.

Details

Epoch: 114

Domain: energy

Fiscal cost estimate (LLM): $56.48B CAD

Structural estimate (RIPPLE): +$49.04B CAD net (v3-bfs-signed depth=2, decay=0.5/hop; agrees)

Top RIPPLE cost paths
  • +$27.41B → budgetary_balance (Budgetary Balance (Deficit/Surplus)) via alberta_clean_grid_transition_cost
  • +$23.26B → direct_program_spending (Direct Program Expenses) via budgetary_balance
  • −$7.44B → healthcare_spending (Healthcare Spending) via provincial_emissions_alberta
  • +$5.82B → transfers_to_provinces (Major Transfers to Provinces/Territories) via budgetary_balance

  • alberta_grid_renewable_share: {"new": 45.0, "old": 15.0}
  • alberta_grid_emissions_intensity: {"new": 180.0, "old": 450.0}
  • alberta_clean_grid_transition_cost: {"new": 25.0, "old": 0.0}

Proposed policy move

alberta_energy_employment: 165 → 155 (▼ -10)
alberta_grid_renewable_share: 15 → 45 (▲ 30)
alberta_grid_emissions_intensity: 450 → 180 (▼ -270)
alberta_clean_grid_transition_cost: 0 → 25 (▲ 25)

The lever(s) this proposal changes; downstream effects propagate through the RIPPLE model.
