HRAI 2019 Fall Meeting - Darthmouth, Nova Scotia

Date:  Wednesday, October 9, 2019
Location:  Delta Hotel Darthmouth | 240 Brownlow Avenue, Darthmouth, NS  B3B 1X6
Speaker:  Scott Cameron, Nova Scotia Power
Scott Cameron has been with Nova Scotia Power for the last 22 years. In his current role as Program Manager on the Customer Solutions Team, Scott holds responsibility for the residential contractor network, which includes heat pumps, electric thermal storage and water heaters. Scott also works very closely with the manufacturer reps and wholesalers that sell and support these products. Prior to working with Nova Scotia Power, Scott was Regional Manager with Irving and responsible for all fuels, sales and service based out of Truro and covering Northeastern Nova Scotia.

Topics will include an update on the heat pump program.

The HVACR industry is facing some interesting challenges and opportunities as a result of Canada’s commitment to meet its obligations to reduce carbon emissions under the Paris Climate Agreement.  HRAI is looking to position the industry as a provider of energy efficient and low carbon solutions to assist in meeting the aggressive targets set under this agreement.  But delivering these solutions in a cost-effective way will require some adaptation and growth and how this plays out will vary from region to region across the country.  What will all this mean for the industry in Nova Scotia?

Martin Luymes, Vice President, Government & Stakeholder Relations from HRAI will explore these issues and some potential solutions, including the development of a special trade designation for residential air conditioning in the province as a way to meet the unique training needs of residential heat pump contractors in the province.
