Active Engagements

Regional electricity planning has commenced for the Renfrew region, with an Integrated Regional Resource Plan (IRRP) anticipated to be posted in Q3 2022. This engagement initiative will provide interested parties with an opportunity to offer input for consideration as the process is underway.

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:

• The towns of Arnprior, Deep River, Laurentian Hills, Petawawa and Renfrew. As well as the townships of Admaston/Bromley, Bonnechere Valley, Brudenell, Lyndoch and Raglan, Greater Madawaska, Head, Clara and Maria Horton, Killaloe, Hagarty and Richards, Laurentian Valley, Madawaska Valley, McNab/Braeside, North Algona Wilberforce and Whitewater Region; as well as the City of Pembroke.

• Indigenous communities and organizations including Algonquins of Pikwakanagan and Algonquins of Ontario Consultation Office.  The Huron Wendat Nation of Quebec has expressed their interest in the Renfrew area due to their historical presence in southern Ontario.  The Renfrew region also includes the MNO Ottawa Region Métis Council, with the MNO High Land Waters Métis Council located close by to the south.
• Local distribution companies (LDCs) who serve the community including Ottawa River Power Corporation, Renfrew Hydro Inc., and Hydro One Networks
• Transmitters
• Consumers and service providers for the area

All comments and enquiries in this engagement initiative can be directed to engagement@ieso.ca.
