The Ontario Energy Board amended the licences of both Ontario Power Generation Inc. (OPGI) and the Independent Electricity System Operator (IESO) pursuant to a Ministerial directive issued to the Board on May 21, 2008.

The licenses of IESO and OPG have been amended to permit OPG to refrain from operating the coal-fired plants continuously, as it would otherwise be obliged to do.
