This study assesses Ontario's progress in the areas of energy efficiency, renewable energy and replacing coal-fired electricity generation against the 20 recommendations made in the Pembina Institute's May 2004 study: Power for the Future: Towards A Sustainable Electricity System for Ontario. The report finds that despite the provincial government's repeated statements about the need to create a conservation culture in Ontario, the focus of the province's actions have been overwhelmingly on securing new supplies of electricity. $10.5 billion has been committed to supply vs. $163 million on conservation initiatives.
