Details

The OEB amended the Distribution System Code (DSC) to establish criteria to facilitate the elimination of the remaining load transfer arrangements between electricity distributors. The principles underlying those criteria are minimizing rate impacts for the load transfer customers and avoiding unnecessary costs being imposed on consumers due to an uneconomic distribution system expansion for the sole purpose of connecting load transfer customers.
