Our energy is our people

by Toronto Hydro
Here at Toronto Hydro, we play an important role in Ontario’s electricity system. Not only are we responsible for delivering electricity to almost 800,000 customers in Canada’s largest city, we also distribute approximately 18% of the electricity consumed in the province.

This includes powering our vibrant and bustling city, from homes, businesses, schools and hospitals to the Royal Ontario Museum, the Art Gallery of Ontario, Casa Loma, Ripley’s Aquarium of Canada, CN Tower and your favorite games or concerts at the Rogers Centre.

Did you know that, apart from electricity, our other most valuable source of energy is our people?

We believe in supporting and providing students with the opportunity to explore career options and connect with the world of work and that’s why Toronto Hydro is a proud supporter of Take Our Kids to Work Day and The Learning Partnership.

Every year, we welcome Grade 9 students into our workplace where they can develop a better understanding of the world of work and explore a wide range of career possibilities at Toronto Hydro.

These include skilled trades, engineering, information technology, finance, regulatory and legal services, human resources and communications. We also offer professional development and growth opportunities for students and new graduates to get a headstart in the industry while receiving mentorship and making valuable connections.
