Dear Colleague,

I invite you to attend the 16th Ontario Power Summit which will be taking place on February 28th and March 1st in the Ivey Tangerine Leadership Centre in Toronto.

As usual, the Power Summit will tackle not just the key issues facing the Ontario power industry today but will also look ahead to what can be expected in the years to come. Among the topics to be addressed by an excellent roster of speakers are:

• Power Market Renewal – What are the Opportunities and Challenges?

• The potential for district energy

• Where natural gas fits in Ontario’s energy future

• The response of LDCs faced with technological innovation and a new competitive environment

• Regulatory reforms proposed by the Ontario Energy Board

• The threat to the power system posed by cyber-attacks and how to respond

There is no other conference you can attend which will give you a more comprehensive and insightful understanding of what is happening and will happen in the Ontario power sector. As well, the intimate nature of the program will allow you to meet and exchange ideas with our speakers and other summit participants.

Please join us on February 28th and March 1st at the Ontario Power Summit.

It will be time well spent.

10:15 – 11:15 AM | Renewable Energy Generation – What is the Future in Ontario?

Ontario has experienced a large amount of investment over the past decade in renewable energy generation driven by Provincial government energy policy. The provincial government has put the brakes on new feed-in tariff style procurement for the time being. This panel will discuss the short and long term future of renewable energy generation in Ontario.

11:15 – 12:30 PM | District Energy – Does it have a Future in Meeting the Energy Needs of Ontario?

District energy has been used to meet heating and/or cooling requirements in Toronto and Markham for many years. District energy has also been broadly employed in a number of European countries. Toronto is proposing to expand district energy in the city to both meet heating loads and to help meet the city’s greenhouse gas commitments. This panel will investigate the potential role of district energy in meeting Ontario’s energy needs both within Toronto and Markham as well as beyond in other municipalities?

12:30 – 12:45 PM | Managing Assets – What are the Options for Ontario Power Companies?

There is a growing need for large utility companies in Ontario to improve how they currently manage their assets. Managing thousands of assets across multiple locations is a cumbersome task and without a properly implemented solution, the loss of assets and productivity is inevitable. This segment will investigate two topics of asset management: what factors result in a successful asset management solution and the financial benefits of a flexible tool leasing model.

12:45 – 2:00 PM | NETWORKING LUNCHEON

2:00 – 2:45 PM | What is the Future of Natural Gas in Meeting Ontario’s Energy Needs?

Natural gas has been meeting an increasing amount of Ontario’s heating requirements in recent decades and has assumed a larger role in meeting the province’s electricity needs through the development of gas fired generation plants. Over the past couple of years, the role of natural gas has been thrown into doubt with the statement by Ontario’s Minister of Environment and Climate Change that natural gas should be eliminated as an energy source by mid-century. While the government appears to have backed away from that statement, this panel will probe the long-term role of natural gas in meeting Ontario’s energy requirements whether it is for heating or power generation.

3:00 – 4:30 PM | Utility Transformation – Is It Happening?

Utilities around the world are facing significant new threats to their long-standing business models arising from the introduction and spread of innovative technologies, such as distributed generation and micro-grids. Some commentators have even talked about “the death of utilities”. This panel will look at what Ontario’s wires companies think about this challenge and what they are doing to meet it.
