I will briefly summarize the ecoENERGY initiatives, Mr. Chairman: there's the ecoENERGY technology initiative, which funds research, development, and demonstration of clean energy technologies; the ecoENERGY for industry program, which helps industry improve energy use; the ecoENERGY for buildings and houses program, which encourages the construction and operation of more energy-efficient buildings and houses; the ecoENERGY retrofit initiative, which provides financial support and information to encourage the retrofit of homes and small and medium-sized enterprises; the ecoENERGY for renewable power program, which provides incentives ...[+++] to boost Canada's supply of clean electricity from renewable sources such as wind, biomass, small hydro and ocean energy; and, the ecoENERGY for renewable heat initiative, which provides incentives and industry support to increase the adoption of clean, renewable thermal technologies.

Current electricity production cost (€/kWh)

Target electricity production cost (€/kWh)

In addition, because of the large share of capital investment required for energy production facilities, the total cost of producing a kWh of electricity is about twice the cost of saving a kWh.
