Engagement summary
The Province launched an independent review of CleanBC programs to ensure they are effectively reducing emissions, making life more affordable, and supporting a strong economy.
Two independent climate policy experts, Merran Smith and Dan Woynillowicz, led the review. They gathered perspectives from people across the province to learn what’s working well, what could be better, and what more can be done.
Merran Smith is the president of New Economy Canada and has decades of leadership and partnership with industries, governments, and communities. She is recognized as an advocate and thought leader in advancing Canada’s clean economy, with career highlights that include founding Clean Energy Canada and leadership in the Great Bear Rainforest agreement. Smith was a board member of BC Hydro and co-chair of B.C.’s Climate Solutions Council, which advised government on CleanBC.
Dan Woynillowicz launched Polaris Strategy + Insight, a strategic advisory firm that helps clients navigate energy transitions and climate solutions. He blends policy expertise with an understanding of technology innovation and market transformation. He is a volunteer adviser to Urban Climate Solutions and the Clean Economy Fund, and was board chair of the B.C. Centre for Innovation and Clean Energy (CICE) for five years.
