Ontario Electricity Demand

Note: Projected Ontario Demand uses a step graph to show the highest expected demand within the hour. Actual Demand uses a line graph to show average demand for that hour.

How Weather Affects Electricity Consumption

On a hot summer day a one degree increase in temperature increases demand by 400 MW — equal to adding the city of Brampton to the power grid. In cooperation with the Independent Electricity System Operator www.ieso.ca this product provides current Ontario electricity demand, supply price and monthly power consumption summaries.
