Ontario exports a significant amount of electricity to the U.S. each year. In 2022, Ontario sent about 15.7 million megawatt-hours (MWh) across the border, the overwhelming majority of it being hydroelectricity. Which, if my math is correct, is roughly 1.3-1.4 million yankee households worth of electricity.

    Like orange man gives a fuck about us peasants.

    Gonna be an awful lot of people learning to put together a solar setup for their house, assuming of course that it won't be tariffed to unaffordability

    Buy some basic battery/inverter/panels stuff if you can afford it now

        I'm a beginner too, but I like Will Prowse on YouTube. Start there. Knowledgeable guy and he bases recommendations on build quality

        I just bought enough stuff to have a small setup for power outages for a day or two. Will pay for itself if it saves our freezers from thawing
