Here is an interesting follow up to my article above.

The power authority for the Canadian province of Ontario said it will buy electricty from 262 newly built or proposed renewable energy projects for 1000 MW of extra energy, or the output of a single coal-fire generation facilities.

That means the power authority has to deal with 262 suppliers instead of operating a single facility to get the same amount of electricity.

There are obvious differences since dealing with suppliers means not having to deal with the day-to-day operations of the facilities – in the case of a coal-fire plant – that would include things like sourcing the commodity and dealing with the logistics of getting a steady supply of coal delivered to the facility.

Safe to say, the energy sector is changing, and fast…
