SUMMARY:Pathways to Decarbonization
DESCRIPTION:\nThe Pathways to Decarbonization study is in response to the the Minister’s October 7, 2021 ( https://www.ieso.ca/en/Corporate-IESO/Ministerial-Directives#md-oct-7-2021 ) letter requesting that the IESO evaluate a moratorium on the procurement of new natural gas generating stations in this decade (reliability, cost, environmental considerations) and develop an achievable pathway to phase out natural gas generation and achieve zero emissions in the electricity sector that considers:\n\nReliability\nCost/affordability\nTimeline\nImpact on broader electrification of the economy\nLow emission fuels for thermal generation\nStorage combined with non-emitting resources\nNew technologies\n\nThe IESO will engage with stakeholders on the study approach to inform the development of achievable pathways to zero emissions in the electricity sector. The IESO will provide transparency around the assumptions that will be used in the analysis, and seek feedback (based on technical research) on key assumptions. This feedback will be used to ensure that stakeholder input will inform the IESO’s report back to the Ministry in Q4 2022.\nThe IESO encourages stakeholders and particularly environmental organizations, municipalities, and consumers to stay informed and participate in this engagement. To be added to the email list for communications related to this engagement or to submit comments and enquiries, please email engagement@ieso.ca ( mailto:engagement@ieso.ca?subject=Questions%20re%20Zero%20Emissions%20Pathway ).\n\n\n
