Application for Funding for Non-Wires Solution Program (EB-2025-0265)
On December 1, 2025, GrandBridge Energy Inc. (GrandBridge Energy or GBE) applied to the Ontario Energy Board for approval of its Non-Wires Solution (NWS) Program. The NWS Program proposes to procure 20 MW of capacity through an NWS capacity auction for three years (2026 to 2028), during which time a traditional infrastructure investment can be planned and constructed. The application requests OEB approval of NWS rate riders for the period May 1, 2026, through December 31, 2028, for the GBE(E+) Rate Zone, and deferral variance account. GrandBridge Energy submits that the NWS Program has a benefit-to-cost ratio of 1.97. If the application is approved as filed, a GrandBridge Energy’s typical residential customer and a typical general service customer in the GBE (E+) rate zone (i.e., the service territory for the City of Cambridge, Township of North Dumfries and County of Brant) would see the following increase effective May 1, 2026.
