� US-Canada clean energy dialogue- U.S. Energy Security (Canada viewed as domestic)
� North American cap & trade system
� Smart grid infrastructure- Federal Clean Energy Fund; Ontario Green Energy Act .
� Green jobs for new economy
Canadian Solar PV Industry: Record of Achievement
� 2009 puts Canada on the North American Solar
PV map with 50+ MW installed in Ontario.

Solar PV Incentives & Support in Canada
� Ontario Green Energy and Green Economy Act� Create 50,000 green economy jobs
� Ontario Feed in Tariff (“FIT”) Program � Launched Oct. 1, 2009
� 20 year contract terms
� Currently no Solar PV Federal Incentives � Currently no Solar PV Federal Incentives
� Other Provinces looking at Solar PV support policies:� British Columbia
� Saskatchewan
� Nova Scotia
Ontario … Challenges Going Forward
� Ongoing Stability� Concern about Ontario provincial election and impact on FIT Program
� Sending the right signals to the market place
� Continuous monitoring and program improvement (i.e. REA process, etc)
� Domestic Content Requirements� MicroFIT & FIT Program: Increase to 60% January 2011
� Solar PV is a global industry � Solar PV is a global industry
� Need to ensure that Governments are getting value for their investments
� Developing Industry Capacity� Transmission/Distribution capacity
� Interconnection capabilities & measurement standards
� Evolving financing solutions
� Labour force development (i.e. installer certification)
� Research and development
Solar PV Export Opportunities
� Global Solar PV market growing at 40% – 50% annually
� Over 10,000 MW expected in 2010
� US Market will be the world’s leading solar PV market
� Approximately 900 MW expected in 2010
