ez2viewOntario
Let me start by noting that we have compiled an extensive description of the ez2viewTMOntario, which is available on its own product portal at the following address:

Please click through to the address above to learn so much more about how you can benefit from your own copy of ez2viewOntario.
The description below provides a brief introduction...
First released in 2002 (shortly after the opening of the electricity market), our software ez2viewOntario could be your way to gain a clear view of how the market is currently operating, no matter where you are around the province (or around the world).
ez2viewTM is installed software that updates market data (from the IESO) and other data related to the market (such as weather data, from Environment Canada) over any internet connection and then displays this data on a clear geographical display of the province.
Hence, you can use ez2view to enhance your understanding of the current
market conditions, including
1) How heavily the interties are loaded;
2) Which power stations are setting the MCP at any point in time (which you
can infer based on which generators are changing load when price changes);
3) Locations (within the province) of transmission congestion, or high losses
(which you can see in the colour-spread of nodal prices across the province).
4) You can also see trends in price and demand, of course!
5) You can even configure ez2view to alert you when the market produces
an event of note.
ez2view can provide you a cost-effective way of staying on top of market operations - without even really trying!
For more information about the software, including:
1) How it can be of benefit to people like yourself;
2) How you can get started with your own 7-day trial, at your convenience; and
3) How you can begin your annual licence, if you want to get started straight away,
