Ontario's Regulated Price Plan For Electricity Consumers To Be Updated

Recently, the Ontario Energy Board released its Regulated Price Plan (RPP) Roadmap, setting out a multi-year plan "that ensures that the Regulated Price Plan can meet the challenges of the future." The OEB's RPP Roadmap Report notes several concerns related to the current approach to the RPP, and sets out a number of initiatives to improve and change the RPP over the next three to five years. The OEB's RPP Roadmap Report is the culmination of the lengthy review process, which involved the commissioning and review of a number of consultant reports about the impacts of the RPP, consumer awareness, approaches in other jurisdictions and possible future options. The OEB has determined that the costs of this process will be recoverable from all distributors.
