Thank you, Chair.
Welcome, witnesses, both virtually and here in person. I just want to say that it's great to be on this committee and to be looking at this study.
I want to go to Energy Storage Canada and Mr. Rangooni.
Justin, you and I have spoken about energy storage and the importance of traditionally.... You know, you had the pillars of generation, transmission and distribution. Now you have this fourth pillar, what I would call distribution in the energy business or the energy sector.
In budget 2023, we introduced a 30% investment tax credit, an ITC. I wonder if you could provide an update on, first of all, some of the great innovation that is occurring within the energy storage sector here in Ontario and in Canada, of course. Also, how important is it that the ITC be put in place for energy storage and the growth thereof?
