I can maybe speak of one program in particular, on the renewable energy side, and maybe Carol can speak on the energy efficiency side.
The major new initiative, at least in my branch, that we announced, was the eco-energy for renewable power initiative. The previous program that was in operation provided the subsidy of 1¢ per kilowatt hour over ten years, but only for wind energy. The new program will extend that to include wind, energy produced from biomass, energy produced from low-impact hydro, and solar. It's a broader series of energy technologies that will be eligible for the program. That's, I guess, the principal difference between the program that was in operation and the new program.
With respect to how we will measure, of course, the target for the program is 4,000 new megawatts of generation, but exactly what target we reach will depend a little bit on the mix among how much small hydro we get, how much biomass we get, and how much wind we get. It will really be up to the market to determine what the generation mix is. The program will by and large operate on a first come, first served basis. We may or may not reach that 4,000-megawatt target, but the energy target will be met almost by definition, because we pay 1¢ per each kilowatt hour of electricity produced from these new sources.
In the case of biomass, for example, one of the issues in our terms and conditions was whether and how we could be assured that biomass projects would lead to reductions not only in greenhouse gas emissions but in other air quality-related emissions. The proponents, as a requirement for getting assistance, will be required to provide us with information on the impact on air quality of their projects. That will again provide us with an ability to know over time what impact we are having not only on the growth of renewable energy but on some other indicators.
