Question

the province of Ontario hopes to completely eliminate the use of coal for generating electricity and replace it with wind and other sources. Use the internet to find out what portion of Ontario’s electricity is supplied by wind power.

Answer 1

As of 2021, wind power contributes to a significant portion of Ontario's electricity generation. According to the Independent Electricity System Operator (IESO) of Ontario, wind power accounted for approximately 13.2% of the province's electricity supply in 2020. This represents a substantial increase compared to previous years. It is worth noting that Ontario has been actively increasing its renewable energy capacity, including wind power, to gradually replace coal-fired generation.
