Graph 1: 9300 MW of new capacity are projected to be added to the Ontario system between 2011 and 2015. Most of the increase is in non-hydroelectric renewables with wind representing about 2/3 of that group. In terms of the business arrangements, most of the new projects will come in under the FIT program or be related to the Green Energy Investment Agreement (GEIA) with Samsung.
