Report: Canada's Prairie Provinces to Lead in Renewables Growth

---

Canada's "prairie provinces" -- Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba -- will lead the country's growth in renewable energy capacity over the next three years, according to a new report by the Canada Energy Regulator (CER).

The report, Canada's Renewable Power, says less reliance on coal and large increases in wind and solar capacity will increase the amount of renewable energy in Alberta and Saskatchewan, while Manitoba will strengthen its position as a prominent hydropower producer.

Industrial Info is tracking 81 capital renewable energy, worth $14.48 billion, in the three provinces.
