Notes to Summary of Resources:

1. Installed Resources: This is the total capacity of the existing installed generation resources in Ontario assumed to be available over the summer and winter peaks in the 18-month time span. This value includes all the generators in Ontario, retired generators, embedded generators not managed by OEFC or generators not directly connected to the IMO-controlled grid.

2. Imports: Represents the amount of external capacity considered to be reliably committed to Ontario under existing contracts/agreements.

3. Total Resources: This is the sum of lines 1 and 2 above.

4. Total Reductions in Resources: These reductions represent, under each of the two scenarios, the sum of generator deratings, planned generator outages, generation limitations due to transmission interface constraints and allowances for non-utility and hydroelectric generation production below rated capacity.

5. Price-responsive Demand: This is the amount of price-responsive demand assumed under each resource senario.

6. Available Resources: This is the difference between lines 3 and 4 above.
