1 Taking Greater Control of Your Energy Use: A Municipal Energy Profile Nik Schruder Director, Energy Efficiency, IESO Association of Municipalities of Ontario (AMO) Conference August 22, 2018

2 Powering Tomorrow 2

3 IESO: Who We Are and What We Do Reliably operate Ontario s province-wide power system 24/7 Enable provincewide energy conservation Support innovation Drive electricity market efficiencies Plan for Ontario s future energy needs Work closely with communities to explore sustainable options 3

4 Ontario s Power System at a Glance Installed Capacity (Transmission-Connected) Record Summer Peak (August 1, 2006) Record Winter Peak (December 20, 2004) Grid-Supplied Energy Consumed (2017) 36,853 MW 27,005 MW 24,979 MW TWh Customers ~ 5 million Transmission Lines 30,000 km Planning Regions 21 Import/Export Capability 6,500/6,100 MW Interconnections New York, Quebec, Manitoba, Michigan, Minnesota 4

5 Energy Demand Continues to Decline 5

6 Ontario s Changing Supply Mix Non-emitting resources produced 96% of our energy in

7 Growing Role of Embedded Generation Installed Capacity Transmission-Connected Installed Capacity Distribution-Connected Distributed energy resources make up roughly 10% of total installed capacity 7

8 Regional Planning Evolving the process to better meet the needs of communities 8

9 Community Engagement Engaging with communities is critical to the success of the IESO s decision-making process Ways to engage: Participate in a regional planning process Attend an IESO Regional Forum communityengagement@ieso.ca Visit ieso.ca to learn more Get Involved>Regional Planning and Community Engagement 9

10 Conservation in Ontario Help customers manage costs, while delivering broader system benefits Align conservation programs to local needs, and enable greater customer choice 10

11 Impact of Conservation ( ) Over 4 TWh of verified electricity savings Influencing the purchase of nearly 55 million energyefficient products Installing over 270,000 energy-efficient HVAC measures in residential households Completing 12,000 energy-efficiency lighting projects with small business owners Deploying over 100 energy managers at customer sites 13 funded Energy Managers in municipalities 11

12 City of Greater Sudbury Energy Manager 12

13 Municipal Energy Profile Electricity makes up about 60% of non-transportation municipal energy use Municipalities use more than 6 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity a year Research shows significant energy and cost savings opportunities exist Visit ieso.ca for more: Learn>Conservation and Energy Efficiency>Municipal Energy Profile 13

14 Municipal Participation in Save On Energy 75% of Ontario municipalities have completed at least one project through Save on Energy* Retrofit Program provides incentives for lighting upgrades, motor and heating installations, new control systems and more Ontario municipalities have: Invested over $200M in Retrofit projects Received $44M in incentives Achieved over $100M in electricity savings *since

15 Street Lighting Retrofits by Region 15

16 Municipal Energy Use 16

17 End-Use Breakdown 17

18 Annual Electricity Savings Potential 18

19 Water/Wastewater Treatment Research Water/wastewater treatment is the largest electricity use for municipalities (33%) Participation in Save on Energy programs has been limited to date The IESO has commissioned research into market characterization and benchmarking to identify opportunities for greater energy efficiency (expected release: fall 2018) 19

20 Water and Wastewater Save on Energy incentives can cover up to 70% of the cost of energy-efficient projects Trimming pump impellers can reduce electrical demand by up to 25% Upgrading to high efficiency blowers can cut energy use by over 10% VFDs can reduce pump energy use by up to 55% 20

21 Social Housing Programs and incentives to make assisted and social housing buildings more energy-efficient Save on Energy Home Assistance Program provides opportunities for eligible social housing providers to receive in-suite energy efficiency measures 21

22 Recommendations and Next Steps Work with your local distribution company Take a portfolio approach Focus on significant end uses Include non-energy benefits in decision-making Take advantage of facility operator training Remember: We are here to help 22
