Forecasting and Planning
Regional electricity planning in the North & East of Sudbury region was completed in April 2023 with the release of an electricity plan – Integrated Regional Resource Plan (IRRP). A Regional Infrastructure Plan (RIP) led by Hydro One will be initiated next, as part of the regional planning process. This engagement initiative provided interested parties with an opportunity to offer input for consideration into the elements of the regional planning process.
Regional electricity plans take a 20-year outlook on every region in the province. The planning process provides an opportunity for communities to tell the IESO about anticipated needs and priorities and to contribute to the development of the options for meeting this region’s future electricity needs.
All interested parties are invited to participate in this engagement initiative and may include but are not limited to:
North & East of Sudbury Technical Working Group - A Technical Working Group led by the IESO and consisting of representatives from the five LDCs in the region and the transmitter, will use this regional planning engagement initiative to consider input that will identify and plan for local electricity needs over the next 20 years.
Additional details on the IESO’s plans to engage communities and interested parties throughout the process are outlined in the engagement plan.
All comments and enquiries in this engagement initiative can be directed to engagement@ieso.ca.
