That was a very good interview. Do you really think that Nova Scotia can replace 40% of its generating capacity with renewables by 2020 and still have a reliable system? Offhand, I can’t think of anyplace that has that high a percentage of renewables and would it not be a destabilizing factor on the grid? I think a whole lot of people will be heating with wood if that comes to pass.
