2013 Ice Storm - NB

Unprecedented outages

100,000 without power

Some for over 1 week


2013 Ice Storm - Ontario

400,000 without power

Many for 3 days or more

Transit system paralyzed

205 flights cancelled


“Toyota Prius powers Thornhill man’s home” – Toronto Star

The retired engineer had planned

for an outage by configuring an

outlet on his furnace to be powered

from his car’s battery. By rotating

between heat and electricity he

was able to maintain warmth while

also supplying power to his

refrigerator and freezer to keep his

food supplies fresh.

What does this mean to a utility?


The Utility Overview


The Traditional Grid

Large generation units with one way power flow


Peak 3100 MW

Valley 2400 MW

Key Driver – Peak Reduction

Planned Capacity 3000 MW
