Solar’s Contribution to Canada
• What we see:
• “By 2025, solar energy is widely deployed throughout
Canada, having achieved market competitiveness that
removes the need for government incentives, and is
recognized as an established component of Canada’s
energy mix. The solar industry will be supporting more
than 35,000 jobs in the economy and displacing 15 to 31
million tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions per year,
providing a safer, cleaner environment of generations to
come.”
