The Ontario Sustainable Energy Association (OSEA) recently wrapped up a very successful 1st Annual Community Power Conference in Toronto November 15-16, 2009. One of the highlights was the creation of the ‘World Wind Energy Association International working group for Community Power’ by OSEA and the World Wind Energy Association (WWEA).
“Our goal was to capture the momentum of Ontario’s new Green Energy Act, and work towards 100 per cent sustainable energy,” said Kristopher Stevens, executive director of OSEA. “The new International working group with WWEA will work to document and share best practices in community power while strengthening the world wide network of local sustainable energy leaders.’
