Abstract
At the present time, the principle topics for the modern world are the reduction of environmental pollution and the production of energy from renewable sources such as for example solar photovoltaic systems, wind farms, hydroelectric plants, etc. This specific care is determined by different reasons, in particular from the Kyoto Protocol, and from various problems resulting from the use of fossil fuels, like greenhouse effect, acid rain and climate change. The scope of this work is to study, for different years in Italy and Canada, the production of electric energy from renewables. At a later stage, the attention will be given to the distribution of the electric energy consumption for different sectors. In particular, the possible solutions are investigated in order to reduce pollutant emissions. This paper examines the integration of renewable energy sources in Canada and Italy where the attention is on the possibility to reduce emissions when integrating electric vehicles.
