Alberta renewable energy pause has left legacy of cancelled development: study
Alberta's seven-month moratorium on renewable power approvals resulted in dozens of cancelled projects and legal uncertainty, according to a report from the Pembina Institute.
The report states that 53 wind and solar projects were abandoned after the United Conservative Party government paused approvals, failing to clarify new rules.
The capacity of the cancelled projects totals over 8,600 megawatts, enough to power all homes in Alberta.
