According to the report, recent retirements of coal-fired power plants and planned nuclear refurbishments will provide a major boost to Ontario’s renewable and natural gas-fired electricity generation. By 2040, Ontario is expected to add more than 11 GW of new capacity, primarily through wind, solar and natural gas generation. Contrast that statement (more natural gas generation) with Ontario's Climate Change Action Plan to move buildings and the electrical system off natural gas by 2020. The Climate Change Action Plan also provides for "free" overnight electricity for charging electric vehicles. I am unaware of any suppliers of free electricity. Ontario is now saddled with its most corrupt and incompetent governments ever. I fear for the demise of our previously great and prosperous province.
