  • NATURAL GAS-FIRED RESOURCES 1.0 INTRODUCTION the Purpose
    EB-2007-0707 Exhibit D Tab 8 Schedule 1 Page 1 of 30 1 NATURAL GAS-FIRED RESOURCES 2 1.0 INTRODUCTION 3 The purpose of this exhibit is to describe how natural gas-fired resources are used in the 4 Plan. 5 2.0 SUPPLY MIX DIRECTIVE 6 Q. What does the Supply Mix Directive (the “Directive”) state with respect to natural 7 gas-fired resources? 8 A. The Directive states the following: “Maintain the ability to use natural gas capacity at 9 peak times and pursue applications that allow high efficiency and high value use of the 10 fuel”. 11 Q. Which natural gas-fired applications were considered by the OPA in developing 12 the IPSP? 13 A. The OPA considered the following natural gas applications for generating electricity: 1 14 x New generation located close to loads, of various technologies (simple cycle, 2 3 4 15 combined cycle, combined heat and power and fuel cells ); 16 x Continued operation of, or extension to, current facilities, some under contract to the 17 Ontario Electricity Finance Corporation (“OEFC”) or the OPA, and the Lennox 5 18 generating station; and 19 x Conversion of some of the coal-fired generating units to operate on natural gas. 1Simple cycle gas turbines (SCGT) produce electricity from the combustion of natural gas to drive a turbine generator. This is a single-stage process. 2 Combined cycle gas turbines (CCGT) produce electricity from the combustion of natural gas to drive a turbine generator, with the heat produced in this process producing steam that drives a second turbine generator, and thereby produces additional electricity.

  • Meeting Toronto's Electricity Supply Needs
    ONTARIO CLEAN AIR QUALITY ISSUES FACT SHEET #19 AIR ALLIANCE A comparison of the Meeting Toronto’s ▼ Portlands Energy www.cleanairalliance.org Electricity Supply Centre and the Needs: Toronto Waterfront Clean Energy Centre Toronto is one of the largest cities in North America that has no significant electricity generation capacity within its own vicinity — the city generates just 1.2% of the power used within its boundaries while using close to 20% of the power produced in Ontario. Currently, the central city south of Eglinton (between Hwy. 427 and Victoria Park) receives almost its entire electricity supply via two Hydro One transmission corridors. This leaves the city highly reliant on large centralized supply sources outside of the city, such as the Pickering and Darlington nuclear stations and the giant Nanticoke coal-fired station on Lake Erie. It has been widely recognized that this current power structure leaves the city highly vulnerable to power disrup- tions while also creating serious system inefficiencies. To address this imbalance, efforts are underway to locate new generation capacity within the city, while also improving overall energy efficiency (Toronto Hydro, for exam- ple, has set a goal of reducing peak demand in Toronto by 5% by 2007). This, in turn, has led to two proposals to build new generation facilities on the eastern waterfront: • The Portlands Energy Centre (PEC) is a joint venture of Ontario Power Generation and TransCanada that is proposing to build a 550 megawatt (MW) combined-cycle* natural gas power plant near the site of the mothballed Hearn Generating Station. The PEC plan has undergone a complete environmental assess- ment.

Hearn Power Generation Station, are now features of many post-industrial urban landscapes. Largely out of use since 1983, the Hearn has seen a variety of redevelopment concepts over the last 30 years, but recent initiatives to revitalize Toronto’s Waterfront and industrial Port Lands have spurred renewed interest in the site.
