April 14, 2022
The Minister of Energy has asked the IESO to investigate and propose program options to integrate low-carbon hydrogen technologies into Ontario’s electricity grid for the purposes of balancing and strengthening the reliability of the electricity system and contributing to broader decarbonization.
The IESO will consider a number of innovative approaches and opportunities involving low carbon hydrogen technologies and report back to the Ministry of Energy by October 31, 2022 with program options, timelines, costs and any additional advice the IESO may have on how to proceed.
The IESO will communicate next steps around engagement in the coming weeks.
