Wind and solar energy contracts are too expensive and are driving energy costs beyond the price affordable to Ontarions. It is also a great impediment to making Ontario a competitive site for businesses to invest.

Dear Premier Wynne

It's 2016.

Canada is a First World Nation.  Ontario should be leading Canada by example in renewable energy like solar and wind.  We are so far behind our Commonwealth brother and sister nations that it's simply embarrassing.  Considering we have the highest taxes as a whole both as a nation

Ontario should be a provincial leader in Canada regarding environmental legislature as a means to provide clean air, water and soil to all of its residents. This should be a human right NOT a priveldge of some. Our actions with regard to environmental legislature should be clear and concise.

In a world that absolutely needs to stop producing greenhouse gases, it is critical to start on the paths to energy conservation and renewable energy generation.

As a long term employee of Ontario Hydro, Ontario Power Generation from 1989 to 2001 and Bruce Power from 2001 to present, I have a tremendous amount of respect and trust for Bruce Power as a Company to be the Key Player in Ontario's Long Term Energy Plan to supply 6400 Megawatts of clean, reliab

Please consider the future of our planet. We need 100% renewable energy sources inOntario!

First, I support the Green Energy Act  and the efforts to establish renewable energy in Ontario and elsewhere.

To whom it may concern,

Bruce Power currently provides 30% of Ontario’s electricity at 30% less than the average residential price of power. Refurbishing BP's reactors will provide jobs for Ontarians, and ensure sustainable power through to 2064.

Minister of Energy

I want Ontario to go 100% renewable without the use of nuclear energy. With the Paris Agreement in effect and the destruction of this planet due to climate change, we must switch to renewable sources fast.

I think the Ontario government should move away from fossil fuels and nuclear energy; instead it should move towards developing more green energy using the German model. A co-op model with citizen participation would have the highest degree of success.

1.  Conservation:  we have the potential to cost-effectively reduce electricity demand by 30% by 2035 - this should be a priority.

2. Diversify by empowering Communities and Citizens to move towards 100% Renewable, taking full advantage of reducing costs.

Renewable energy in Ontario is the future. Sustainable economic growth will flourish and the green economy will add to Ontario's greatness as an economic power in this sector. More jobs will be created and our air and water will be cleaner.

I have worked in the nuclear industry in Ontario for 40 years. I have been witness to the changes in the power supply portfolio over the years:

Ontario should join the global movement toward 100% renewable energy.

Ontario’s next energy plan needs to come clean on the true cost of nuclear power and help citizens and communities to empower themselves with renewable energy.
