摘要

We all know what the road to Hell is paved with. And when it comes to good intentions, Ontario's landmark Green Energy and Green Economy Act — commonly known as the Green Energy Act or GEA — takes a back seat to nothing. Introduced in 2009 by Dalton McGuinty's Liberal government, the GEA represented one of the most significant energy policy overhauls in Canadian history. The goal was to clean up the province's polluted air by shutting down coal-fired generating plants and replacing them with cleaner solar, wind, and bioenergy power kick-started through generous subsidies or Feed-in-Tariffs.
