Ontario Vaults From Worst To First In Windpower In Canada Over Three Years
SAULT ST. MARIE — Ontario is now Canada's leading wind power generator thanks in part to the opening today of the Prince wind farm on the shores of Lake Superior, northwest of Sault Ste. Marie, Energy Minister Dwight Duncan announced.
October 17, 2006 - As part of the government's strategy for furthering structural efficiency and productivity in Ontario's electrical distribution sector, the moratorium on the purchase and sale of distribution assets by Hydro One has been lifted. At the same time, the Ministry of Finance has announced that publicly-owned utilities will be exempt for two years from paying the electricity transfer tax when they sell electricity assets to other public utilities in Ontario.
Securing Reliability For Ontario's Long-Term Electricity Supply
QUEEN'S PARK — Energy Minister Dwight Duncan directed the Ontario Power Authority (OPA) today to proceed with its recommended 20-year electricity supply mix plan, with some revisions.
The plan achieves a healthy balance by moving away from coal in favour of new nuclear power and renewable energy. The government has set targets that will double energy efficiency through conservation and double the amount of energy from renewables by 2025.
