All the players in Ontario’s power generation industry will be here. Combined, they produce more than 95% of all the electricity generated in the province. Virtually every person attending is a senior executive decision maker. APPrO 2005 delegates set the policy agenda, forecast supply needs, determine supply mix, evaluate investment opportunities, guide procurement, negotiate contracts, shape prices, influence market mechanisms and regulate the industry as a whole. These are right people to know because they can make it happen for you. If you want to be seen as a player too, you need to be at APPrO 2005.

Ontario Energy Minister Dwight Duncan says this is "...one of the largest peacetime investments in the history of this country."  If you want to get in on Ontario’s massive rebuilding project, go to: http://www.appro.org/conference2005/public/conference2005/index.html.
