The Energy Template is used to specify the bids or offers for various resources like generators,<br />
loads, off-takes and injections. This template can be used for data submission in any window<br />

will be available to all Market participants when available. Older versions cannot be used<br />
when a new version is issued.<br />
The Bilateral Contract Template is used to specify the hourly amount exchanged between<br />
two Market participants. This template can also be used to view the bilateral contract data.<br />

resources. Market participants will use this template to send their schedule data to the <strong>IESO</strong>.<br />
This template can also be used to view the schedule data. This template can be used by<br />
market participants that are:<br />
Self-scheduling generators, or<br />
Intermittent generators<br />
