Independent power producers on Tuesday cautiously praised a throne speech promise to dramatically reshape British Columbia’s energy sector.
The provincial government is promising to improve both the economy and the environment with the introduction of a Clean Energy Act intended to streamline development of new green electricity initiatives.
…“I’d have to give the government kudos,” said Paul Kariya, Independent Power Producers association of B.C. executive director.
“I think there is encouragement there on improving the whole framework of procurement and how energy is brought to the market,” Kariya said. “It reinforces that the clean energy sector is a star on B.C.’s economic horizon.”
