Although Ontario has made some moves toward renewable energy, there is much more that needs to be done.  Relying on nuclear energy for many decades to come is both risky and costly, while continued use of fossil fuels will certainly contribute to climate disruptions here and abroad.  At

As a concerned citizen, i urge the Government of Ontario to move towards a 100% renewable energy production.  I commend you for closing all the coal firing generators and hope that you will do the same with our nuclear generators as soon as feasible.  Over 47 developing countries have c

On behalf of Hydro One Limited (Hydro One), thank you for providing an opportunity to make a formal submission to the Long-Term Energy Plan review process.

The current model of funding for CDM programs has left residential homes behind. There are some coupons for a few items and the gas utilities have an upgraded program. There are three problems: First, because of the funding model the LDCs have no requirement to push these programs.

I would like to comment on four areas:

Please set a standard for the other provinces and make Ontario energy 100% renewable.  This should not include nuclear energy which is costly dangerous and has radioactive bi products that are dangerous and hard to difficult to get rid of.

Please, let us convert to 100% renewable energy and NOT NUCLEAR. We don't want a Chernobyl or Fukushima.

I am glad to see that there are plans to continue the work in making Ontario's energy more clean and sustainable. I am very disappointed that there is still discussion on making pipelines a part of economic development.

Skate where the puck is going!

I'm all for 100% renewable energy focusing on hydro, nuclear, solar and wind with an extreme emphasis on solar and nuclear.

Ontario’s Long Term Energy Plan

I applaud the Wynne and McGuinty governments for taking firm action on reducing emissions, decommissioning coal-fired power plants, and investing in renewable energy resources. The province will set a shining example across North America and beyond, by going 100% renewable.

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.

We need to think more of the generations to come.  There could be a lot of misinformation out there as seen by the comments about the radioactive waste in the 8th part of the online survey.

Set an example for rest of Canada and the rest of the world.

long term planning must NOW exclude nuclear power from mix.

highly dangerous, very expensive and OPG/CNSC are incompetent.

high costs will continue to rise as the derelict plants are given extensions beyond original operating limits.

Our province of Ontario should lead the way by joining the global movement towards 100% renewable energy and a low-carbon future.  Please make it happen.  Thank you.

While Planning Ontario's Energy Future has comments that suggest conservation is a high priority the technologies and programs don't appear to reflect that sort of goal.
