Ontario’s spending to lower electricity bills hit record high last year (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The government of Ontario’s spending to lower electricity prices for residents, businesses and other consumers reached an all-time high last year, its financial statements show. The government’s public accounts, released Thursday, report spending of nearly $6.9-billion on electricity price mitigation programs during the fiscal year ended on March 31. That is equivalent to more than half of the government’s $13-billion deficit in the same period – and is nearly enough to pay for a new nuclear rea

Read excerpt
Pickering Nuclear Generating Station’s Unit 5 reactor shut down Tuesday, the first step in taking Canada’s oldest nuclear power plant offline for a lengthy overhaul. All four operational units at the station, located east of downtown Toronto, are scheduled to come offline before Sept. 30 to undergo an extensive, $26.8-billion refurbishment. The Ontario government said in a statement that construction work began Monday; the station’s owner, Ontario Power Generation, said work on Unit 5 is expecte
Alberta data centre could cause power bills to spike, report says (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A data centre under construction north of Edmonton could raise power bills by between $270 and $460 annually for Albertan households, according to a new report by the Pembina Institute, an energy think tank.

Read excerpt
Three of four reactors at Ontario’s Darlington Nuclear Generating Station are experiencing prolonged outages, data from the Independent Electricity System Operator show, even as the province faces a further large drop in nuclear power generation in just a few weeks’ time. Ontario Power Generation completed a $12.8-billion, decade-long refurbishment of its station in Clarington, Ont., in March. Although provincial officials have portrayed that overhaul as an unqualified success, Darlington’s unit
North America’s electricity grid is ready to grow. Manufacturers needed to build it are placing their bets (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As expansion plans for North America’s electrical grid begin to take shape after a period of relative stagnation, few components have been more difficult to obtain than power transformers. Their availability has dwindled, to the point where utilities can wait several years to get their hands on one. Manufacturers are scrambling to keep up: Switzerland-based Hitachi Energy HTHIY has bought land adjacent to its transformer manufacturing plant in Varennes, Que., near Montreal, and is now laying reb
