Regulation of the Ontario electricity system has evolved over the last one hundred years, and continues to do so at an ever-increasing pace. The industry today, which serves over 4.7 million electricity consumers, is inextricably linked to government and government policy on the economy, the environment, and First Nations; for many in the industry, getting a grasp on the legislative and regulatory framework can be a convoluted exercise.
Written by three energy law experts, Ontario Energy Law: Electricity, 2nd Edition takes an incredibly complex subject area and makes it easily understandable to people who are involved in the industry. This well-organized, handy reference guide provides background on the dynamics between government, regulators and regulated entities to enable readers to understand the way electricity is regulated in Ontario.
