Environment committee  Biomass: We're looking for a biomass product for that particular usage.

Environment committee  One word? Two words?

Environment committee  That would be electrical energy, by which I mean renewable electricity. As you know, we talk at length in our brief about bioenergy, which is also an important aspect. If I correctly understand your question, Mr. Trudel, we're talking more about electricity in this case. In Quebec, and in many regions of Canada—not just Quebec—wind energy is the most reliable one out of the box.

Environment committee  Thank you, Mr. Trudel. That's a very good question. AQPER looks to the Quebec government first but is always in touch with the federal government. It's extremely important that the country explore the green hydrogen issue. Let me explain. A review of the hydrogen and bioenergy strategy has begun in Quebec, and the Quebec government announced it at AQPER's last conference.

Environment committee  Thank you very much for welcoming me to your committee. Three minutes is not much time so I'll try to describe briefly who we are and explain why we're interested in this study. I am the president and chief executive officer of the Association québécoise de la production d'énergie renouvelable, or AQPER.
