ICI Solutions for Energy Reduction in Ontario

What is GA?

To know about this, it is important to understand “Hourly Ontario Energy Price (HOEP)”:

The wholesale price of electricity is determined in the real-time market administered by the IESO. All electricity consumers in Ontario pay the wholesale price, also referred to as the commodity price, except for those who have entered into a retail contract. The IESO calculates the hourly Ontario energy price (HOEP), which is charged to large consumers that participate in the market, as well as local distribution companies (LDCs) who recover it from the subset of customers that pay the market price.

HOEP is only one part of the total commodity cost for electricity. The global adjustment (GA) is the component that covers the cost of building new electricity infrastructure in the province, maintaining existing resources, as well as providing conservation and demand management programs.
In Ontario, the GA is in excess of $1B and depending on what percentage of the total electricity consumed in Ontario you are responsible for, your organization will pay a portion of this to cover the mentioned costs.
