Winter time-of-use schedule & rates take effect November 1

Date

The Ontario Energy Board (OEB) has announced new electricity prices for households and small businesses, effective November 1. Winter time-of-use (TOU) hours will also take effect November 1.

10.1 off peak, 14.4 mid peak, 20.8 on peak, excluding new bill relief

* With changes in legislation, prices on the Electricity line are increasing so that they once again closely reflect the forecast cost of supply. The Ontario government has introduced an expanded rebate (the Ontario Electricity Rebate) providing bill relief that will be applied to customer bills, largely offsetting the price changes on the Electricity line. The Ontario Electricity Rebate of 31.8 per cent replaces the eight per cent provincial rebate, and applies to consumption on and after November 1.
