Have co-generation and alternate power generation been extensively studied when it comes to supplying power to the Heartland and north? If so, where can we find copies of the studies?

During a public forum with stakeholders on November 16, 2007, the Alberta Electric System Operator (AESO) presented and discussed several different generation scenarios developed to test transmission system reinforcement needs. A copy of the presentation can be found on the AESO's website aeso.ca by following the path Transmission>Planning>Long Term Planning>Consultation>Long Term Transmission System Planning Stakeholder Meeting - Presentation. While the AESO has participated in a study of the potential for co-generation in the oil sands performed by the Canadian Energy Research Institute (CERI), the AESO is not privy to the proprietary studies completed by, or on behalf of independent developers.

Copies of the CERI study may be purchased directly from the institute.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
