Transcript Document

The Department of Geography Speaker Series presents…
Sustainability, Conservation and
Renewables and the Future of Ontario's
Electricity System
Dr Mark Winfield will discuss the evolution of Ontario's electricity
system from a sustainability perspective and present modeling results
developed for the Pembina Institute/WWF-Canada’s “Renewable is
Doable” project regarding the environmental and economic
performance of potential alternative future scenarios for the system.
These alternative scenarios place greater emphasis on conservation
and low-impact renewable energy sources than the nuclear-focused
proposals currently being advanced by the Government of Ontario.
