Canada adds only 57 MW of utility-scale solar in 2025
The Canadian Renewable Energy Association is forecasting Canada's cumulative solar capacity, which stands at 5.4 GW today, could surge to around 21 GW by 2035, driven by a healthy procurement pipeline across most provinces. Official deployment figures for behind the meter solar installations last year, which are driving Canada's solar market today, are yet to be finalized.

Watched Solar Opposites, a cartoon started by Justin Roiland like Rick and Morty with lots in common.
Including Roiland being kicked out after a couple of seasons for his crimes, and being replaced. This time not with an impersonator but just a new more british actor. Stayed pretty much in vibe with his style though.
Four aliens stuck on earth, plus the adventures of the tiny people that one of the aliens shrunk to keep in his wall like an ant farm. And the Silver Cops.
Pretty good fun. Watched the five seasons on Netflix in a couple of weeks. Apparently there's another if I search or wait.
Interesting how the machine can just keep churning it out even when the lead folks disappear. That's the ideal I suppose. Create the show then let it run on without you.

Balcony solar power has been a growth industry across Europe for a few years and consumers can pick up kits at retail stores, take them home and plug them in, and get immediate benefits. The U.S is slowly changing legislation to make these easily installed with no issues from the power companies, and Utah is the 1st to allow them.
Are there any provinces or territories that are considering legalizing these kits?
