The IESO delivers key services across the electricity sector including: managing the power system in real-time, planning for the province’s future energy needs, enabling conservation and designing a more efficient electricity marketplace to support sector evolution.
The IESO delivers funding programs to promote broad equitable participation in Ontario’s energy sector, including Electricity Support Programs specifically intended for Indigenous communities in Ontario.
