The utility, it seems, was ahead of most other orgs when it comes to reaction to the COVID-19 pandemic. It already activated its pandemic plan in late January.

Interesting little tidbit from hydro chair Jim Durrell on the annual question of Hydro Ottawa acquiring Ottawa-based Hydro One customers. Still no, but the discussions that were happening a few years ago contemplated an acquisition of customers through Hawkesbury to Kingston.

I'm always highly impressed with Hydro Ottawa. Very organized. Ahead of the curve, even with a pandemic most shrugged off until the very last minute. And their efforts to try and purchase more Hydro One customers could mean further dividends to the City in the future. I do hope they can purchase more customers within the Ottawa city limits.
