Canadian Electric Power Technology Roadmap : Forecast
|
Abstract |
|
By the year 2020, energy providers will replace Canadian electric and gas utilities. There will be a convergence of electric generators, fossil fuel suppliers and service companies. Communication systems and computers will develop into smart systems able to control the production and end use of energy. Large providers of bulk power will sell to direct customers and aggregators. Other energy providers will fill niche markets by taking advantage of unique local conditions such as availability of local fuel sources (landfill gas, hydraulic storage, photovoltaic panels, biomass, wind), remote customers and green power. Thermal energy will become an important by-product of electrical generation. This publication provides a forecast of the electric power technology and how it will affect both providers and their customers.
