Much of the newer power generation coming online in the last few years is natural gas or combined-cycle natural gas plants OPG is not however responsible for the transmission of power which is under the control of Hydro One The Pickering Nuclear Generating Station is one of three nuclear power stations in Ontario Despite its diverse range of power options problems related to increasing consumption lack of energy efficiency and aging nuclear reactors Ontario has been forced in recent years to purchase power from its neighbours Quebec and Michigan to supplement its power needs during peak consumption periods Ontario's basic domestic rate in 2010 was 11.17 cents per kWh; by contrast Quebec's was 6.81 in December 2013 the government projected a 42 percent hike by 2018 and 68 percent by 2033. Industrial rates are projected to rise by 33% by 2018 and 55% in 2033 The Green Energy and Green Economy Act 2009 (GEA) takes a two-pronged approach to commercializing renewable energy; first it aims to bring more renewable energy sources to the province; and secondly it aims to adopt more energy-efficiency measures to help conserve energy the bill envisaged appointing a Renewable Energy Facilitator to provide "one-window" assistance and support to project developers to facilitate project approvals The approvals process for transmission projects would also be streamlined and (for the first time in Ontario) the bill would enact standards for renewable energy projects Homeowners would have access to incentives to develop small-scale renewables such as low- or no-interest loans to finance the capital cost of renewable energy generating facilities like solar panels The Sir Adam Beck Hydroelectric Generating Stations is a hydroelectric plant located in Niagara Falls Ontario is home to Niagara Falls which supplies a large amount of electricity to the province the Bruce Nuclear Generating Station the largest operational nuclear power plant in the world is also in Ontario and uses 8 CANDU reactors to generate electricity for the province Ontario had the most wind energy capacity of the country with 4,900 MW of power (41% of Canada capacity) Government law and politics. . Politics of Toronto S St Michael's Hospital was founded in 1892 by the Sisters of St Joseph who operated the Notre Dame des Anges a boarding house for working women Originally an old Baptist church the hospital on Bond Street was created in response to care for the poor population in the south end of Toronto The hospital opened with a bed capacity of 26 and a staff of six doctors and four graduate nurses Within a year it was expanded to include two large wards and an emergency department As early as 1894 St Michael's Hospital started receiving medical students it negotiated a formal agreement with the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Toronto in 1920 that continues to this day By 1912 bed capacity had reached 300 and a five-room operating suite was added Ongoing physical expansion most prominent in the 1960s increased the original 26-bed facility to a high of 900 beds Between 1892 and 1974 St Michael's school of nursing graduated 81 classes totalling 5,177 graduates the school was closed in 1974 when nursing education was moved into the province's community college system Thereafter the hospital opened a school for medical record librarians the first in Canada and also participated in the preparation of dietitians and X-ray and laboratory technologists In March 2010 the hospital re-branded itself simply as St Michael's to reflect its growing movement into medical research At the same time a new motto: "Inspired Care Inspiring Science." was also revealed Public transportation in Toronto dates back to 1849 with the creation of a horse-drawn stagecoach company Today Toronto's mass transit is primarily made up of a system of subways buses and streetcars covering approximately 1,200 km (750 mi) of routes operated by the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) and inter-regional commuter rail and bus service is provided by GO Transit Contents.
