    ARPA On Green Energy

    Uploaded by

    Amy MacPherson
    This document is a draft letter to an elected member of the Ontario government expressing concern about rising electricity rates due to subsidies for renewable energy companies. The letter cites a study finding Ontario residents will pay $14 billion more for electricity over the next 20 years and businesses will pay an additional $13 billion. It argues the government's decision to establish feed-in rates for solar and wind power that are much higher than rates for hydro have led to these costs and will bankrupt the province if not addressed. The letter calls for a moratorium on subsidies for green energy.
