Nova Scotia Power has chosen to delay its request, by a year, to have solar power users in the province pay more for access to the power grid.
NS Power wants future solar panel customers using the net-metering system to pay $8.00 per kW of “installed capacity” per month. This is on top of a request to increase general power rates by 10 percent for everyone over the next three years.

Reduction of greenhouse gases is essential if we are to prevent an irreversible climate disaster and nuclear power is a big part of the solution, say Gordon Dalzell and John Crompton.
The Halifax-based company has 70 “Energy Hubs” that serves more than 23,000 people in rural areas of the African nation.
The Smart Energy Company says this the first solar power generation station in the province with its connection to the NB Power grid.
