Decreasing costs of wind and solar have driven a wave of renewable energy integration across the globe. Six jurisdictions — California, Texas, Ireland, Germany, South Australia, and Denmark — have surfed the leading edge of this wave and demonstrated how renewables can contribute to a modern grid.
Despite the different pathways taken by each jurisdiction, our analysis has uncovered several key findings that could help advance wind and solar deployment across Canada. Together, these findings show that wind and solar can be an integral part of reliable, affordable grids, and that higher levels of renewables development is achievable across jurisdictions in Canada with long-term planning.
