Our wonderful provincial government passed the
ideologically-driven Green Energy Act. This GEA promotes and
subsidizes "renewable" electrical power produced by windmills and solar
panels.
This renewable (but intermittent) power costs
much more (several times more) than the non-CO2 "green" power that we get
from our nuclear plants (55% of Ontario's electricity) and our hydro
plants.
You and I and everyone else in the Province of
Ontario (who pay for electricity) are now paying much more money (higher
power rates) forever, for the electricity we use, to pay the
capital cost of the "free" solar panels and its accessories.
Where else will the money come from to pay for this "free" equipment?
The Government of Ontario is bribing us with our
own money because it thinks that it is more ethical for us to use more expensive
and intermittent solar power.
Pure Energies states: "We take pride in our solution. By offering
financing, installation, maintenance, and ongoing system monitoring, at no cost to you; we make it easy and
affordable for you to make money and
make a difference with solar."
Pure Energy and the solar panel suppliers are
making big money and we Ontario electricity consumers are paying for the good,
ethical feeling of using free solar energy. Ask Pure Energy how you "make
money"? Will your free solar-generated power be sold back to us
consumers, giving you a subsidy for putting these panels on your
roof?
I suppose this benefit/subsidy will pass on to
the next owner of your house. Ask Pure Energy exactly who owns the
solar panels. Can you take them off your roof and sell the panels to
someone else? What happens if you want disconnect them or if they break
down or if they get dirty.
You might consider taking this subsidy so that
we can all learn first-hand how it works.
Since you are a financial planner and analyst, try
to figure out for yourself where the money comes from and where it
goes.
