Fortis Inc. first entered the Ontario market in 1996 with the purchase of a 50% interest in Canadian Niagara Power, making Fortis the only utility company to have operations in three Canadian provinces at the time.
Fortis Inc. acquired the remaining 50% of Canadian Niagara Power in 2002, creating FortisOntario. Today, FortisOntario owns and operates three local distribution companies and also owns a 10% minority interest in certain regional electric distribution companies. FortisOntario met a peak demand of 261 MW in 2023. FortisOntario also acts as the Project Manager for the Wataynikaneyap Power Transmission Project.
