Take 5 with Top 50 CEO Stephen MacDonald

Stephen MacDonald is the CEO of EfficiencyOne / Efficiency Nova Scotia and EfficiencyOne Services – all of which are dedicated to energy efficiency programs and services.

Since 2015, MacDonald has secured over $400 million in funding for programs that have saved over $1 billion in energy costs and avoided more than a million tonnes of carbon emissions.

In this episode of Take 5 with the Top 50, we ask Stephen MacDonald if Covid has accelerated the transition away from carbon-based fuels and if there really is such a thing as “green” oil. We also dig into the economic realities of the world’s energy future, discussing what Canada needs to do to be a part of that future.

For each episode of Atlantic Business Magazine’s Take 5 with the Top 50 CEOs video series, we ask five questions of a 2020 Top 50 CEO award winner. See video below for our full Q&A with EfficiencyOne’s Stephen MacDonald.
