The Solar and Sustainable Energy Society of Canada Inc. (SESCI) is a Canadian non-profit organization whose purpose is to advance the causes of solar energy and sustainable energy in Canada. [1] The organization was founded in 1974 as the Solar Energy Society of Canada. It is a member of the International Solar Energy Society.
They work pro-actively to build bridges between stakeholders and seek ways to improve Ontario's energy system collaboratively recognizing that community, industry and government should all play a role in shaping Ontario’s energy future. OSEA defines sustainable energy as including: Renewable energy (bio, wind, hydro, solar, tidal, geo-thermal)
With the introduction of a Feed-in tariff (FIT) in 2009, Ontario became a global leader for solar energy projects. The program was the first of its kind in North America. [citation needed] Thanks to the FIT program, Ontario was the home of what was temporarily the largest solar farm in the world (in October 2010) until surpassed by larger farms in China and India.
