  • Planning for Wind Power: a Study of Public Engagement in Uddevalla, Sweden
    Planning for Wind Power: A Study of Public Engagement in Uddevalla, Sweden by Michael Friesen A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba In partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF CITY PLANNING Faculty of Architecture, Department of City Planning Winnipeg, MB Copyright © 2014 by Mike Friesen Abstract Despite seemingly widespread support, wind power initiatives often experience controversial development processes that may result in project delays or cancelations. Wind power planning – often derided for ignoring the concerns of local residents – is ideally positioned to engage citizens in determining if and where development may be appropriate. Following the process of a dialogue based landscape analysis in Uddevalla, Sweden, the research endeavours to better understand the ties between landscape and attitudes towards wind power, how concerned parties express these attitudes, and how these attitudes may change through public engagement. In contrast to many existing quantitative studies, the research uses one-on-one interviews with participants of the planning processes to provide a rich qualitative resource for the exploration of the topic. Five themes emerging from the interviews and their analysis, are explored in depth. These themes include: landscape form and function; the expression of public attitudes; changing attitudes; frustration with politicians and processes; and engagement and representation. Consideration is also given to landscape analysis as a method, wind

  • Realizing British Columbia's Second Renewable Electricity Revolution
    Realizing British Columbia’s Second Renewable Electricity Revolution An Outlook 2020 Topic Paper prepared by OnPoint Consulting Inc. for the Business Council of British Columbia March 2010 Sponsored by The opinions expressed in this document are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect those of the Business Council of British Columbia. Permission to use or reproduce this report is granted for personal or classroom use without fee and without formal request provided that it is properly cited. Copies may not be made or distributed for profit or commercial advantage. Executive Summary A renewable electricity revolution is sweeping across the globe. Many jurisdictions are accelerating the development of renewable electricity in response to concerns about climate change, energy security and supporting economic development. The United States is now the fastest growing jurisdiction for renewable electricity; however, China and India are both beginning to make a significant shift toward renewable electricity generation. The growth in renewable electricity is being supported by the rapidly evolving renewable electricity technology. As technology continues to rapidly improve, the cost of renewable electricity is also falling. British Columbia is already a renewable electricity leader, with more than 87% of the province’s generating capacity coming from renewable sources. Much of the province’s renewable electricity generation is based on a massive wave of large hydroelectric facilities constructed between the 1960’s and 1980’s to support the development of electricity‐intensive industries in the province. There is now an opportunity to create a second renewable electricity wave based on smaller renewable electricity (wind, small hydro, geothermal, ocean and biomass).

  • Community Wind in Alberta
    Status of Social Economy Provision of Wind Electric Energy in Alberta Photo: Wind turbines at Pincher Creek, AB Julie MacArthur BALTA B6 Researcher January 4, 2010 Wind electricity in Canada and Alberta Wind power is one of the fastest growing energy sources in the world and Canada is no exception to this. 2009 was a record year for the development of wind power in Canada and it now occupies the 11th country spot in total installed capacity according to the World Wind Energy Association 2009 report. Total installed capacity in Canada is now at 3,319MW (CanWEA, 2009a1), which is up from 2,370MW at the end of 2008 (40% increase) and 1,770MW in 2007 (StatsCan, 2009). Every province now has some installed capacity (with the opening of Bear Mountain Wind Park in Dawson Creek, BC). In fact, using the CanWEA numbers, installed capacity from 2000 to 2009 grew at an average of 40% every year. According to a CanWEA press release “current provincial targets and policy objectives would result in a further quadrupling of installed wind energy capacity in the next six years” (CanWEA, 2009a). While this growth is impressive, it is important to keep in mind that Canada still has one of the most underdeveloped wind resources in the world. Germany, for example, which is 28 times smaller than Canada has 10 times more installed wind capacity (Valentine 2009, p.3). Only 0.6 per cent of Canada’s total electricity production in 2008 was from wind and tidal sources (NEB, Source: CanWEA 2009(http://www.canwea.ca/farms/index_e.php) 2009, p.43- see table 1).
