- description: The new Ontario government is now harnessing more clean, renewable electricity from Niagara Falls through the completed Niagara Tunnel Project. The new tunnel, which is more than 10 kilometers in length, is channelling additional water from the Niagara River to flow to the Sir Adam Beck Generating Station at a rate of 500 cubic metres per second. This will supply Ontario with enough electricity to power the homes and businesses of a city the size of Barrie. The largest hydroelectric project to come into service in Ontario for the past 50 years, the Niagara Tunnel Project is a significant provincial achievement, employing 580 people during the peak of construction. Building a clean, reliable energy system is part of the new Ontario government's plan to ensure we have the electricity we need to power the province's homes, schools, hospitals and economy.
