London, Ontario Wants To Be Alternative Energy Hub

London, Ontario
London in Ontario, Canada has attracted 200 renewable energy jobs with the building of a Samsung C&T solar modules manufacturing plant.

According to Canoe, the job creation by the alternative energy enterprise is welcome news, since the city currently has the highest unemployment rate in the country.

London Mayor Joe Fontana said the city wants to move away from its auto-based economy to become a center of renewable energy and a leader in clean energy southwestern Ontario.

There are concerns that a change of government could ruin the plant plans. But Samsung said that the factory will be built and is expected to be completed by 2012.
