After measuring Canada’s clean-energy resources, the Stanford
team says Canada can reach this goal through the following breakdown:

• 58 per cent wind.
• 22 per cent solar.
• 16 per cent hydro.
• Two per cent wave.
• Two per cent geothermal.

“That
would power Canada for all purposes,” says Mark Jacobson, a co-founder
of the Solutions Project and a civil and environmental engineering
professor at Stanford University, in the heart of Silicon Valley.
