Strategies for overcoming the barriers Tables 1, 2, and 3 also present examples of a significant number of tools, resources, or programs that have been used in recent years in BC and Canada for overcoming the identified barriers. The key stakeholders who are able to influence and reduce barriers are primarily federal/national governments, provincial/state governments, provincial/state electricity regulatory agencies, and the energy utilities. Government strategies to overcome barriers Table 4 outlines the strategies currently used to promote renewable energy technologies in BC, with examples pertaining directly to small-scale hydroelectric projects. The table shows that in Canada, the federal government is quite active in most areas, including research and development, information and technical assistance, financial assistance, market transformation (procurement), fiscal and taxation reform, and regulatory reform. Conversely, the provincial governments in Canada have till recently been noticeably absent from many of these activities. Indeed, in BC the most common complaint of prospective renewable energy providers has been the "policy vacuum" in government.

To overcome barriers, they need to develop a policy focus on the public interest in renewable energy. Until this is recognized, producers and consumers will face significant barriers in multiple, disaggregated, redundant, and even contradictory approval processes and requirements of all the relevant jurisdictions and agencies. Many existing processes were designed to protect the public interest in large, complex projects brought forward by large established companies, and may be inappropriate for small-PDF Image | Organisations in Different Renewables
