Very disappointing. There is no bold statements on the use of microgrids, virtual power plants, two way Electric Vehicle power flows, massive use of DERs. The plan is to build more transmission lines to distant new generating stations as was done a hundred years ago. The rest of the planet is integrating and expanding DERs with local controls to survive outages but not Ontario. The plan here is to build more of the same outdated central generating capacity and remain vulnerable to every increasing threats from Climate Change. The Clean Energy Canada report
https://cleanenergycanada.org/report/a-renewables-powerhouse/
said it very clearly.

Also the Dunsky report for the IESO December 2022 is very clear
• Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) have emerged as a major trend impacting the electricity grid
and wholesale electricity markets, with the promise to transform the role of electricity users into active
participants
• Effectively enabling DERs can provide significant benefits to the electricity grid and to consumers, and
can further satisfy the preferences and priorities expressed by individuals, communities, and
businesses
• This study seeks to determine the types and volumes of DERs capable of providing cost-effective
electricity system services and the extent to which these DERs may emerge over a 10-year time
horizon
• Insights from these results will be used to develop recommendations on focus areas, priorities, timing
and key considerations for DER integration efforts in Ontario

How can you ignore this?
