When it comes to "investment appeal" for renewable energy, Canada continues to lag behind our global competitors, including the U.S., Spain, Germany, Italy, France and even India and China (see Ernst & Young Renewable Energy Investment Attractiveness Index in Q3 2006.) These countries invest in low-impact renewable energy because of its multiple environmental, social and economic benefits.

They see beyond the fossil fuel era and want to ensure they have a mature and competitive renewable energy industry in place when the inevitable transition to renewable energy comes later this century.
