Canada is on a transformative journey to reach net-zero greenhouse-gas emissions by 2050. Wind and solar energy, supported by energy storage, will power much of this journey. That’s because wind and solar are the lowest-cost sources of new decarbonized electricity. We will need to increase our wind and solar capacity 10x by 2050, so we need to act now, and we need to act together. Learn more here: http://ow.ly/Vzaf50Jpz0L *** Le Canada est sur une voie transformatrice pour atteindre la carboneutralité d’ici 2050. L’énergie éolienne et solaire, soutenue par le stockage de l’énergie, alimentera une grande partie de ce parcours. En effet, l’éolien et le solaire sont les sources les moins coûteuses de nouvelle électricité décarbonée. Nous devrons multiplier par 10 notre capacité éolienne et solaire d’ici 2050: nous devons donc agir maintenant et agir ensemble. Pour en savoir plus, cliquez ici : http://ow.ly/rTEU50Jpz0M
