11. Renewables Spending in Context
• All new generating capacity added to Canada’s grid last
year was renewable, except for one natural gas plant. This
means 88% of new spending went to renewable power
generation and 83% of new capacity from renewable
sources.
• Spending on new renewable generation in Canada in 2015
is equivalent to all new capital investment in mining and
quarrying ($9.6 billion) or half of new capital invested in
manufacturing ($19.1 billion).
