The Independent Electricity System Operator (IESO) works at the heart of Ontario’s electricity system, managing the grid in real time, planning for future energy needs, and delivering energy efficiency programs to ensure a reliable electricity system that supports economic growth and a changing energy future.

Across Ontario, Indigenous communities are increasingly shaping the future of energy. From advancing energy efficiency and developing generation projects to participating in major transmission initiatives, Indigenous leadership is helping to drive innovation and sustainability, grounded in cultural values and environmental stewardship.

The IESO is committed to meaningful engagement with Indigenous communities. Through collaboration and dialogue, we aim to raise awareness of emerging energy needs and promote economic reconciliation by supporting fair, equitable, and inclusive participation in Ontario’s electricity sector.
