Open the qc market up for alternative energies .
lets get rid of monopoly hydroquebec and iq
lets chose for hydrogen insread without them .

These declines are so substantial that, even without federal subsidies, solar and wind power are now less expensive than coal, nuclear and combined-cycle gas technologies. If a financial cost were attached to carbon emissions from the fossil fuels, the differentials would be even larger.
The development of hydrogen greatly adds to the stunning prospects for clean energy. A climate-friendly fuel that can be derived from other renewable energy generation, hydrogen has the potential to substitute for natural gas in energy production. In assessing the costs of hydrogen, the Lazard study distinguishes between “blue” hydrogen (produced via steam-methane reforming) and “green” hydrogen (produced via electrolyzer powered by onshore wind and utility-scale solar generation) because the technologies make a difference in the extent to which the hydrogen can reduce carbon emissions.
Using blue hydrogen in a combined-cycle power plant could produce emissions 90% lower than if natural gas were used instead. And green hydrogen would eliminate carbon emissions altogether.
