Implementation Engagement
The Market Renewal Program (MRP) Energy Project will deliver a more efficient, stable marketplace with competitive and transparent mechanisms that meet system and participant needs at lowest cost. The final high-level design documents were completed in 2019and the final detailed design documents were completed in 2021. Now the focus is to translate these designs into rules, manuals, processes and tools as part of the implementation phase.
The Replacement of the Settlement System (RSS) is a key project that will see a complete modernization of the IESO’s settlement system, the tool used to produce statements reflecting market participants’ involvement in IESO-administered markets. This project will address limitations within the existing system and processes, and integrate changes resulting from the Market Renewal Program and future IESO initiatives.
