In 2009, the province of
Ontario brought in a series of world-class renewable energy
programs. If similar programs in Europe are any indication,
Ontario has kick-started a viable commercialization of
renewable energies within their province. The Pembina
Institute has done good work in Alberta to show the
viability of renewable energy here. Tim Weis discusses some
of the economic, legislative and technical details of
Ontario’s program, and how Albertans can take ours to the
next level. Video Info
