Ontario Electricity Structure
Number of Customers (000s)

Distributors Ranked by Size
4.5 million electric customers

Mandatory Smart Metering
announced by provincial
government in July 2004
90 municipally owned electricity
distributors
About 40 distributors under 10,000
customers

Ontario’s electricity supply challenges - Past View
Looming capacity shortages

– Aging nuclear plants
– Lack of generation investment
during restructuring
– Need to secure 25,000
megawatts worth of generating
capacity in the next 15 years
•$25 to $40 billion investment
– Immediate needs in the next few
years
Combined with
– Import capacity limited to
4,000MW
– A political decision to retire all
coal plants
