Haldimand County is currently slated for between 180 and 200 wind turbines. Andy Frame, formerly a senior adviser, Electric Utilities, Ontario Ministry of Energy, states that "the changes in hydro rates are being driven by the policies of the McGuinty government and their decision to shut down coal plants, and replace power supplies with green energy sources."
"Stop paying exorbitant prices for wind and solar power, and no more long-term contracts. Manufacturers of wind and solar equipment are making good profits on these programs."*
