Market watchdog launches investigation of Alberta electricity operator

Alberta’s power market is unique in Canada in that it has no central or Crown power provider. Instead, private companies run the power plants that feed electricity into the grid.Alberta’s market watchdog is investigating the operator of the province’s power grid for possible contraventions of its duty to provide a reliable and fair electricity system.

Alberta’s power market is unique in Canada in that it has no central or Crown power provider. Instead, private companies run the power plants that feed electricity into the grid. The AESO works with industry and the government to manage and plan that market. Part of the probe centres on whether the AESO shirked its duties under Alberta’s Electric Utilities Act to operate the power market “in a manner that promotes the fair, efficient and openly competitive exchange of electric energy,” including on the interconnected system that runs outside of the province.

“Given the MSA’s involvement in this proceeding, if it intended to address the substance of BHE complaint as the subject of its investigation it could have simply said so, but it did not,” BHE wrote.
