Ontario’s once-in-a generation opportunity to modernize and decarbonize our electricity grid
Since exploring how decarbonizing the grid would impact various communities, TAF commissioned a new report showing the most affordable way to meet rising electricity demand is through a mix of energy efficiency, solar, wind and storage.
It’s now or never for clean electricity in Canada
Electricity is the fourth largest source of emissions in Canada, and the electricity demand is growing as we electrify buildings and transportation. The Clean Electricity Regulation is key to making Canada’s electricity supply net-zero by 2035. The federal government recently requested input from stakeholders on a proposed frame of one of Canada’s most critical climate policies, the Clean Electricity Regulation.
Five myths about ethanol and renewable fuels
As Ontario’s transportation emissions continue to rise, increased use of ethanol and other renewable fuels can be an important step in the transition to a low-carbon transportation system. Read our myth-busting blog to clear up common misconceptions and find out about some key environmental benefits of ethanol.
Why is Ontario turning its back on renewables?
Yesterday the Ontario government cancelled future large-scale clean power projects, claiming that we have no “urgent need” to procure more electricity supply. What is clear is that projection of Ontario’s electricity generation needs is a difficult challenge, and over-projection of need has left Ontario with a costly over-supply of electricity from inflexible, centralized generation facilities.
