Ensure Nova Scotian Wind Energy Benefits Nova Scotians

Energy generated from local wind farms should be greening the local power grid and benefiting Nova Scotians first. Instead, the Houston government is shipping energy generated from our wind farms overseas. A Nova Scotia Liberal government will take a strong stance to ensure that Nova Scotian wind energy benefits Nova Scotians. We’ll strongly regulate land leasing, water access, and generation capacity to ensure that all Nova Scotians are benefitting from our natural resources. Further, all renewable energy projects would be required to either put electricity into our grid or pay into a fund that will be used to lower power rates for consumers.

Cost estimate: No additional spending required.
