1 Ontario s Changing Energy Landscape Terry Young Vice-President, Policy, Engagement and Innovation January 23, 2018

2 IESO: Who we are and what we do Reliably operate Ontario s province-wide system 24/7 Support innovation Enable provincewide energy conservation Create electricity market efficiencies Plan for Ontario s future energy needs Work closely with communities to explore sustainable options 2

3 Ontario s System at a Glance Installed Capacity (June 2017) Record Summer Peak (August 1, 2006) Record Winter Peak (December 20, 2004) Grid Energy Consumed (2016) Customers Transmission Lines 36,853 MW 27,005 MW 24,979 MW 137 TWh ~ 5 million 30,000 km The IESO is the Reliability Coordinator and the Planning Coordinator for Ontario and works closely with other jurisdictions across North America to ensure reliability of the interconnected power system Hydro Quebec ISO New England Planning Regions 21 Import/ Export Capability Interconnections 6,500 /6,100 MW New York, Quebec, Manitoba, Michigan, Minnesota Midcontinent ISO New York ISO 3

4 Ontario s electricity sector Coal-fired generation has been removed (6,000 MW) Renewable resources now account for 35 percent of the system s energy capacity (14,000 MW) Embedded local power resources are on the rise (3,800 MW) Conservation savings, growing embedded generation and demand reduction programs have offset increased demand Stable supply means the IESO can focus on implementing needed market design changes. Market Renewal has an estimated net benefit of $2.2 - $5.2 billion, over a 10 year period 4

5 LTEP 2017: IESO s role in delivering key initiatives Evolving First nations and Métis energy support programs Renewable distributed generation demonstration projects Removing barriers to energy storage Competitive transmission procurement Review and report on regional planning process 5

6 Municipal energy use in Ontario by the numbers The IESO is preparing to release a Municipal Energy Profile report Developed in collaboration with AMO and a number of municipal stakeholders Looks to gain more insight into the current state of municipal energy use in Ontario Majority of municipal energy is provided by electricity Helps to determine where energy efficiency and costsaving opportunities exist for municipalities 6

7 Municipal energy use in Ontario by the numbers Municipalities have reduced their electricity consumption by almost 10% in the last 10 years Water treatment, sewage treatment, and street lighting continue to be the major electricity end uses Based on 2014 data 7

8 Municipal energy use in Ontario by the numbers about 75 percent of municipalities have completed at least one project through the IESO s Save on Energy programs municipalities have received about $44 million in incentives and, Annual savings of 330 GWh enough to power a community the size of Orillia, ON achieved over $100 million in electricity savings, the majority of which are in lighting 8

9 Municipalities opportunities for further efficiencies LED street lighting Accounts for 17% of total electricity consumption LED street lighting can offer 30-65% in energy savings Over 60% of municipalities still stand to benefit from LED street lighting 9

10 Municipalities opportunities for further efficiencies Water and Waste Water Treatment Save on Energy incentives can offer up to 70% of the cost of energy efficient projects including pumps, aeration equipment and compressed air systems upgrades Programs: Process and Systems Retrofit program Pump Trimming can reduce electrical demand by up to 25% Upgrade to high efficiency blowers to cut energy by over 10% Receive up to 70% of project costs VFDs can reduce pump energy use by up to 55% 10

11 Municipalities opportunities for further efficiencies Energy Management Training 20 municipal organizations have received funding through the IESO s Training and Support initiatives The IESO is currently funding 15 Energy Managers to support municipal energy management activities The IESO is working on initiatives to enhance training opportunities 11

12 Municipalities emerging opportunities Industrial Conservation Initiative (ICI) 23 municipalities new participants In total, 72 municipal facilities participating in ICI Demand Response 7 municipalities are current DR participants, through an aggregator Electrification Municipalities are demonstrating leadership by introducing electric and hybrid vehicles to their fleet and installing charging stations Net Zero Buildings Over the next five years, 12% of Small, 14% of Medium, and 39% of Large municipal respondents have indicated that they will pursue the Net-Zero attribute for one or more of their buildings 12

13 Community-focused Energy Planning Regional Planning is the link between provincial and local planning Provincial Bulk Planning Regional Planning Local Distribution Planning Addresses provincial electricity system needs and policy direction Integrates local electricity priorities with provincial policy directions and system needs Examines local electricity needs and priorities at the community-level 21 Electricity Regions 16 Integrated Regional Resource Plans (IRRP) completed 11 Local Advisory Committees (LACs) 13

14 Community Energy Planning >> A Community Energy Plan (CEP) is a comprehensive, longterm plan to improve energy efficiency, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and foster local sustainable energy solutions in the community Led by QUEST and the Clean Air Partnership and supported by the IESO Provides education and capacity building for Ontario municipalities, utilities and other local stakeholders to develop and implement community energy plans Training tools, sharing of best practices and facilitation of peer-to-peer collaboration Helps align local, regional and provincial energy planning activities Looking to develop a community energy plan? 14

15 Community Energy Planning The Ministry of Energy offers funding to municipalities to assist their development of community energy plans through the Municipal Energy Plan Program The Climate Change Action Plan includes a funding for projects to reduce GHG emissions proposed by a municipality that has completed a community energy or community GHG plan The IESO is evolving its First Nations and Métis energy support programs to better align programs with community needs and interests 36 Municipalities have municipal energy plans underway or complete 97 Indigenous community energy plans underway 15

16 Opportunities to engage Provide feedback on IESO s LTEP Implementation Plan initiatives Detailed engagement plans will be developed for each directive initiative Request the IESO to meet with your municipality Save on Energy programs, updates on regional planning activities in your area, information on community energy plan programs and funding Participate in the 2018 IESO Regional Forums Updates will be communicated through the IESO Weekly Bulletin and IESO website 16

17 IESO Resources Keep in Touch eso.ca to subscribe to updates communityengagement@ieso.ca to receive updates on the 2018 Regional Forums 17
