Ontario, Canada — A Smart Grid Leader By Any Standards

Ontario, Canada is well known as a leader in the adoption of clean energy technology.  Their fabled feed-in-tariffs have provided incentive for developers all over the globe to site renewable energy projects in the province.  And certainly their adoption of smart grid is the envy of the Western Hemisphere, starting with the 7.4 million smart meters, encouraging consumers and businesses to  conserve and shift their electricity use to off-peak periods.  Now, Ontario is taking all this to the next level, with a series of grants, offered to innovators in smart grid and energy storage.  Anyone with a good idea and a home, office, or partner in Ontario is encouraged to apply.
