Ontario electricity costs are going up, and this summer there's a real opportunity to get paid instead of just paying more.
This webinar is for energy managers, operations leads, and facility owners at commercial buildings, cold storage and food processing facilities, post-secondary campuses, and industrial sites across Ontario. If your building runs HVAC, this session will show you exactly what's on the table.
We're keeping this one honest and numbers-forward. No fluff, no slides full of acronyms. Just a clear walkthrough of how the program works, what the payments actually look like, and what you need to do to get enrolled before June 1st. Late registration risks missing key curtailment events, significantly impacting earning potential.
Agenda
1. Why This Summer Is the Time to Act
Electricity costs in Ontario are climbing. The Peak Performance Program puts real cash back in your budget, and the enrollment window is open right now. We'll cover why waiting until next year costs you money.
2. How the Program Actually Works
You get notified the day before a peak event and again by noon on the day of the event. Events typically last a few hours. You decide how much to participate each time, and there's no penalty if you sit one out. While you can enroll throughout the summer, now is the time to get the maximum value from the program.
3. What the Payments Look Like, in Plain English
We'll walk through the incentive calculation live on screen with real-world examples, so you leave knowing exactly what your facility (or portfolio) could earn.
4. Real Examples from Real Facilities
See actual curtailment scenarios and payout numbers from cold storage operations, university campuses, commercial real estate portfolios, and food processing plants.
5. What Enrollment Actually Takes
We'll show you exactly what you need to provide, what Edgecom takes off your plate, and how quickly you can be ready to go.
6. Live Q&A
Open floor at the end. No question is too basic, and we'd rather you ask it here than miss out because something wasn't clear.
