Ontario Greens leader Mike Schreiner is calling on the Ford government to lift the longstanding moratorium on offshore wind energy, emphasizing the province’s potential to lead in the clean energy economy. As demand for electric vehicles and heat pumps rises, offshore wind in the Great Lakes could significantly boost Ontario’s electricity generation capacity by 2050 at a lower cost than nuclear energy. Schreiner criticizes the current administration’s focus on fossil fuels and urges a shift towards renewable energy investments to secure a cleaner and more affordable energy future for Ontario.
