About the Program

Beginning in 2007, The Ontario Power Authority (OPA), in cooperation with Bluewater Power, assisted Commercial, Industrial, Institutional and Agricultural customers to conserve energy and shift their loads from periods of peak demand to lower cost times of the day.

The objective of the program was to leverage energy conservation and load management opportunities by offering incentives for sustainable, measurable and verifiable energy retrofits that resulted in on-peak demand savings and/or annual energy savings.

Maintaining a reliable supply of electricity is a priority. By reducing peak demand, participating businesses will contribute to the increased viability of the overall supply.
