Brief Summary:
$8 billion in new renewable energy deals was announced just recently by the Ontario government agency under the provinces feed-in tariff program. This includes 184 solar, hydro and landfill gas projects winning long term contracts which will provide a total of about 2,500 megawatts of green power.
Short Response:
This is good news for the environment, but provincial rate payers will end up spending over $300 more a year on their electricity bills, which i'm sure will raise controversy and make many people unhappy, but it is for the best ultimately.
