IESO Releases 2014 Electricity Production, Consumption and Price Data
January 15, 2015
The IESO has posted electricity data for 2014, which highlights major trends for Ontario's power system over the past year. Total Ontario grid-connected generator output by fuel type over the year was: Nuclear 62%; Hydro 24%; Gas/Oil 10%; Wind 4%; all remaining fuel types were less than one per cent.
A mild summer in 2014 contributed to reduced overall consumption, which was 139.8 TWh in 2014, slightly lower than 2013 Ontario demand. The province also experienced the first annual winter peak in a decade, with peak demand of 22,774 MW recorded on January 7, 2014 – still low however, compared to the last annual winter peak set in 2004 which was more than 2,200 MW higher.
