Quebec's power generation future looks green and clean
Power generators are planning projects that would increase generation capacity by 42%, up to 24,678 MW.
About 99% of the new generation planned is from renewable sources, increasing the renewable energy from 14,572 MW to 21,888 MW or about 88% of the total generation.

Hydropower Plants to Support Solar and Wind Energy
LONDON - Hydropower plants can support solar and wind power, rather unpredictable by nature, in a climate-friendly manner. A new study in the scientific journal Nature Sustainability has now mapped the potential for such "solar-wind-water" strategies for West Africa: an important region where the power sector is still under development, and where generation capacity and power grids will be greatly expanded in the coming years. "Countries in West Africa therefore now have the opportunity to plan this expansion according to strategies that rely on modern, climate-friendly energy generation," says Sebastian Sterl, energy and climate scientist at Vrije Universiteit Brussel and…
