The Alberta NDP says it has formally filed to the Alberta Utilities Commission, opposing the pause on renewable energy and calling for equal treatment across all energy development.
The Opposition says Alberta had been leading Canada in renewable energy growth at the time the pause was imposed. The party claims companies with active renewable energy projects or planning to invest in Alberta have made it clear it came without warning or consultation.
“We know that this heavy-handed government intervention to meddle with the market and stop renewable energy growth in its tracks has cost us as many as 24,000 jobs and $33 billion in investment,” said Nagwan Al-Guneid, Alberta NDP Energy & Climate Critic for Electricity, Utilities & Renewables.
“We are making it clear to the AUC, as well as Albertans, that we support responsible growth of renewable energy and the jobs and investment it brings.
