Mr. Chairman, the boilers identified for replacement, as the Member highlighted, are to use a more efficient system. The one fortunate thing to point out is when we can capture the market — that is, take advantage of the lower-cost products as well as companies that are willing to enter into agreements where you can replace the existing unit and just pay the O&M, in a sense — that is a benefit. In a number of areas, we are unable to continue with that type of practice because it’s just not available. As well, I’ve been informed that the cost of the materials — the pellets — to run these units…. The further we get away from the capital, the pricier the product gets. I believe the Minister of Public Works may be able to give some more detail on that.
