Energy policy defines the goals of various levels of government and justifies the strategies, levers, and tactics they deploy for their own operations and interventions in the marketplace. Identify one (1) common element of energy policy between Canada and the United States and one (1) difference. Of those two elements, explain how one market intervention (e.g., regulation, investment, tax policy, public outreach) supports energy amenities (from texbook) and the positive and negative impact of that intervention given your specific context/region.

- Analyze how the policy interventions of five levels of government jurisdiction can affect the markets for energy supplies and uses, along with their applications in industrial, business, public sector, and residential sectors; and
- Explain how energy policy responds to current and future global contexts of energy supplies and use.
