Description

This Request for Information (“RFI”) is issued by the Independent Electricity System Operator (the “IESO”) for the purposes of gathering information about the marketplace in order to assist in the determination of future purchasing options or requirements relating to technical advisory services to support the development of a competitive transmission procurement process. Respondents are asked to provide the information requested in Appendix B – RFI Details, together with a completed and signed Appendix A – Respondent Submission Form.

The IESO works at the heart of Ontario's power system – ensuring there is enough power to meet the province's energy needs in real time while also planning and securing energy for the future. It does this by:

balancing the supply of and demand for electricity in Ontario and directing its flow across the province's transmission lines;
planning for the province's short term, medium term and long-term energy needs and securing clean sources of supply to meet those needs;
overseeing the electricity wholesale market where the market price of electricity is set; and
engaging in activities that promote electricity conservation and the efficient use of electricity.

Respondents should be aware that the IESO has both unionized and non-unionized employees. There are two unions within the IESO, namely, the Power Workers’ Union and the Society of Energy Professionals
