Yesterday on CBC Radio’s #ShiftNB with Vanessa VanderValk:
- How much power is used by a toaster; a cell phone charger; a kettle; or an LED light bulb?
- How to save on hot water, appliances & lighting
Missed it? Listen here anytime, cuz energy literacy is key to savings! www.cbc.ca/listen/live-...
How much power does a toaster use? Or a phone charger? Or an LED bulb? Find out on CBC Radio’s #ShiftNB this afternoon as Vanessa Vander Valk & I use a power meter to test few household items. We’ll also be talking about saving on hot water, appliances & lighting.
On after the 5:30 news today!
On yesterday’s energy chat on CBC Radio's #ShiftNB with Vanessa Vander Valk, we took a quick look at the pie chart of energy usage in a typical home, and then reviewed things (some free) that can be done to reduce the BIG slice of that pie chart, heating.

Pleased to again be chatting energy on the radio with Vanessa Vander Valk: about the pie chart of energy usage in a typical home, and then drilling down to how to reduce the BIG slice: heating costs (and some ways to save don't require a penny of investment!). On CBC Radio's #ShiftNB today!
ICYMI: Here's a link to yesterday's episode of Understanding Energy on CBC Radio's #ShiftNB with #VanessaVanderValk - this one on Time of Day (or Time of Use) power rates. They're common elsewhere (including ON, BC, QC) & are likely coming to NB in 2027.

Part 4 of my Energy Literacy series on CBC Radio's #ShiftNB airs today. About Time of Day power rates:
✔️ What they are, how they work & why they're a thing
✔️ What BC, ON & QC are doing
✔️ KEY: what we can do to take advantage of time to save (spoiler: EV owners especially!)
On after 5:30 news!
Very pleased to share that I'll be joining Vanessa Vander Valk on #CBCRadio #ShiftNB every second Monday this winter to talk energy.
Our first chat airs January 19, about peak power. (Spoiler: many think it's just a utility problem, but it has huge implications for every NBer.) #cbcnewbrunswick
Many in New Brunswick saw a glowing spiral in the sky last night — not aliens, but the Ariane 6 rocket venting fuel high above Earth! 🌌
Tune in to Shift NB on CBC Radio One between 4:00–4:15 p.m. to hear how this stunning phenomenon lit up our skies.
