Ontario’s landmark “buy local” renewable energy Feed-In Tariff program launched in late 2009. After four years, the program has created thousands of jobs, helped close coal fired power plants and made energy producers of many Ontarians. But roadblocks remain, and changes are needed.

- 21. LESSONS LEARNED • FIT program enables democratic energy: 1 in 7 Ontario farmers is participating • Local content requirements lead to local jobs • Ambitious renewable energy program helped close all coal- fired power plants in Ontario
- 22. LESSONS LEARNED • Power Authority and utilities need to get projects online faster and/or sign fewer contracts • Price adjustments should happen more quickly, especially for solar power • More local ownership – and earlier – could have alleviated political and project problems
