“Ontario residents are learning to live better with less electricity, says a report to be released today. Consumption is dropping faster than at any previous time and the province is ahead of the conservation target it set three years ago, Peter Love, chief energy conservation officer with the Ontario Power Authority, said in an interview.”
The total energy consumed was down by 2.6% and per capital it dropped by 4.6%. This is not a lot and certainly not enough, but it is a good start.
This is just a beginning, but a good one.
