I am happy with a few policies that have been made since the last Long Term Energy Plan.

I am in agreement that the Refurbishment Agreement for Nuclear Plants have Off-Ramps if refurbishments are not economically feasible as  required by the province.  As other energy supply pricing and energy demand evolves  - such as electric vehicle, storage, the provinces needs to maintain viable options.

I am in agreement wtih the suspension of new funding for new wind and solar projects until such a time that they are economically viable.  The current cost structures are not worhtwhile or sustainable.  If Wind turbines are maintainable  in the long run, perhaps they will become more economonical and environtmentally friendly (noise).  As well, pricing of solar must lower through technology advances as well as assurabnce that a long lifecycle and lower costs are sustainablity. If these come about then  this suspension could be lifted.

For now these are the right things to do, however the gas, wind and solar sources of energy need off ramps as well.
