Ontario’s Long Term Energy Plan – Formal Submission

Tim Clutterbuck, Chair of EDAP of Region of Niagara

Representing:  Industrial Power Users of Niagara,

We are pleased to have received and reviewed the Ontario Planning Outlook from the IESO and the Technical Fuels Report prepared by Navigant Consulting.

I encourage the Minister to initiate changes to the OBC (Ontario Building Code) so that – starting as soon as possible – all new detached and semi-detached housing starts MUST have between 1000 W and 2000 W (1 kW to 2 kW) of Solar PV installed on a Net Metered arrangement (or some reasonable % of

Life must change now. Every individual is accountable for the climate change, the pollution and saving an earth our gr-grandchildren can live on.

It's vitally important to shift our focus towards conservation and renewables, and away from nuclear (whose potential dangers reach far into the future) and fossil fuels (whose problems are well documented).

I would like to see support through funding and incentives to develop co-generation biomass energy plants.

A global movement towards 100% renewable energy is the only possible answer for our planet and those who inhabit it. It is a foregone conclusion. Lead on!

The Paris agreement to stay below 1.5 C rise is only possible by rapidly lowering methane emissions. Natural gas use must be curtailed for avoid upstream fugitive methane.

With our climate changing at a terrifying rate, and our province's nuclear reactors getting older and more dangerous by the day, we need to accelerate our investments in clean, renewable energy.

Achieving Ontario’s Climate Change Goals Through Long-Term Energy Planning

I would like to see more support for Ontario's nuclear power.  It is a clean source of energy.

I want a 100% renewable environment for my grandchildren to live with.

I'd like to see 100% renewable energy in Canada with 20 years but nuclear is a sustainable option for a while. Please phase out other types of non renewable energy first like coal.

NOTE: I am closely associated with the environmental protection group Algonquin Eco Watch. However, the following comments are my own and do not necessarily represent that organization.

I greatly appreciate the opportunity of being able to provide these comments regarding the LTEP 2017.

To whom it may concern,

I want the province of Ontario to act on the fact that we are in the midst of alarming climate changes, and the only way forward is to invest 100% in renewable and environmentally safe methods of energy production.
