So how is the plan going to provide reasonably priced electricity? Quebec has lots of it while hiding their dirty laundry of the mercury’s leaching from flooded forests. Indigenous peoples are not going to give up the lands for any more huge hydro projects. Not sure about the economic viability for Hydro Quebec once the huge profitability of buying from Newfoundland is deducted. Nuclear power is hung up by regulators and technology problems. Solar and wind are prohibitive and unreliable sources. Fuel celled cars have their own environmental manufacturing and disposal headaches that will only increase with acceptance. The same applies for the battery systems in EV’s. The batteries have to be disposed of in a safe environmentally friendly manner. That disposal cost should be added to the price of every new EV.
I don’t disagree that that fossil fuels have a limited lifespan as a source but to close the doors on the short-term solution is unwise.
