Ottawa may not be the most efficient place in the world to install solar panels, but locals trying to get off the grid may want to attend one of the solar energy information sessions recently mentioned on Apt613.
This is your chance to personally benefit from the feed-in tariffs in the Ontario Green Energy Act. That said, unless your house is already very efficiently insulated, making those improvements will probably do more for the climate per dollar invested than putting some solar panels up.

In the spring of 2005, I graduated from the University of British Columbia with a degree in International Relations and a general focus in the area of environmental politics. In the fall of 2005, I began reading for an M.Phil in IR at Wadham College, Oxford.
Outside school, I am very interested in photography, writing, and the outdoors. I am writing this blog to keep in touch with friends and family around the world, provide a more personal view of graduate student life in Oxford, and pass on some lessons I've learned here.
