2019 Electricity Summit
The IESO’s 2019 Electricity Summit focussed on the Electricity Marketplace of the Future with energy thought leaders from across North America sharing their perspectives on topics ranging from the removal of barriers to energy storage, to opportunities energy efficiency may bring as a flexible resource to compete alongside traditional generation. Summit attendees heard how advanced distributed energy markets operate globally and how electricity systems will be called on to adapt or change traditional approaches to accommodate the expansion of these energy resources.
