Project Profile
Multi-state, mutually exclusive projects, small Demand Response test
Autonomous Province, inter-connected projects, larger Demand Response test
≈
Project Outcomes
Focus on technology, significant projected long-term return on investment
Part of 5-year action plan for ‘Smart City’, limited immediate benefits
≠
Governance Structure
Lead organization w/in DOE, Project Review Board, utility partners, technology partners
State-owned utility, provincial government and consortia of technology companies
≠
Governance Attributes
Part of broad energy policy portfolio, no direct ‘electeds’ participation, voluntary citizen participation
Close ties to central govt., Smart Grid Act, voluntary citizen participation
≈
Smart Grid projects are currently focused on technology and planning/implementation.
Little current focus on governance strategies for projects or expansion.
Governance networks are limited to project scope/timelines.
Citizen engagement and “democratic anchorage” is limited.
