Ontario is blessed with a wealth of renewable energy, yet renewables are a very small portion of our total energy supply.

In the next 50 years, we need to reduce and eventually eliminate our dependence on fossil and nuclear fuels to reduce our emissions of greenhouse gases and to prepare safely for declining supplies of oil and gas. Moving to renewable energy sources will save us from the instability of price fluctuations and the unreliable availability of fuel. Renewable sources by definition use local energy such as wind and sun, which are not dependent on political or market forces. This will lead to a more reliable and affordable energy supply.

The Green Party of Ontario has a comprehensive plan to address our energy needs for electricity, heating, transportation and industrial uses, while putting health, climate change and sustainability first. The GPO will achieve this balance by addressing issues of supply and demand.
