vision: To increase Manitoba’s renewable energy use to 50% (from the present 30%) by 2030 without increasing global GHGs.

no single sector can do this alone spend more of our money here reduce our greenhouse gases grow our green industries Why 50 by ‘30?

spend more of our money here reduce our greenhouse gases grow our green industries Why 50 by ‘30? we can lead Canada

How 50 by 30? Where will we get the money? WE’RE ALREADY SPENDING THE MONEY $1b - natural gas $4b - gasoline & diesel IN MANITOBA, RENEWABLE ENERGY IS LOCAL ENERGY electricity electric heat industrial natural gas gasoline & diesel

A Green Plan So what do we do? examples Vermont North Dakota commission-information/ Germany

A Green Plan So what do we do? Every plan has three areas of types of action 1.Reduce demand 2.Increase efficiency 3.Increase renewables

A Green Plan So what do we do? Every plan has three areas of areas of focus a.Heating & Cooling b.Transportation c.Electricity

A Green Plan So what do we do? Each participant needs a plan Reduce demand Increase efficiency Increase Renewables Heating& Cooling Transportation Electricity

Discussion

A Green Plan So what do we do? Every plan has three elements Reduce demand Increase efficiency Increase Renewables Heating & Cooling Transportation Electricity

Who/What is 50 by ‘30? A project of the Manitoba Environmental Industries Association Directed by a Steering Committee consisting of leaders from: o MEIA o University of Manitoba o GeoXergy o Southern Comfort Mechanical o Solar Solutions o Golder Associates o DLF Consulting o International Institute for Sustainable Development o Climate Change Connection o Providence University College o Green Action Centre o Assiniboine Community College Members from industry, civic organizations, universities, businesses, and environmental NGOs

Feed-in-tariffs Payment for renewable energy from third-party producers (P. Gipe, wind-works.org) Advantages Promotes Rapid development of distributed and renewable energy Equality of opportunity in remote communities Disadvantages (?) Prices paid should be based on cost of production rather than market rate for electricity. Achieving provincial renewable energy targets

Existing models Ontario Established under the Green Energy and Green Economy Act in 2009 Germany Established in % of renewables owned by German citizens Achieving provincial renewable energy targets

2007 Currently about 30% of our energy is from renewable sources

2007 Currently we spend about $5.8 Billion per year on energy $3.6B on gasoline & diesel $0.8B on natural gas heat
