Sir Adam Beck's Hydro-Electric Power Commission, which had a "Power at Cost" slogan

Ontario Power Generation (OPG) is the public generator - it is one successor of Ontario Hydro, in turn Ontario Hydro succeeded Sir Adam Beck's Hydro-Electric Power Commission, which had a "Power at Cost" slogan.That slogan has sure faded from this Liberal run government.  

OPG's largest hydro-electric generating stations are the Beck generating stations (2000MW capacity) in the Niagara Plant Group, and the R.H. Saunders (1045MW capacity) generating station on the St. Lawrence river; these are 'regulated' hydro assets, meaning the Ontario Energy Board sets the rates they receive for their production. Water generated power is always the cheapest power to Produce.
