Rates for electricity and water
The Ontario government announced the Lockdown of the province to protect the province's health care system. The province announced it is lowering electricity prices to a discounted off-peak price of 8.5¢/kWh for all time-of-use and tiered customers. This lower rate will be available 24 hours per day, seven days a week starting January 1, 2021, until February 22nd 2021.
The price change will happen automatically. No customer action is required. Please see below for the Time-of-Use electricity prices and the Tiered electricity prices. The OEB normally sets the RPP prices every six months.
RPP applies to residential consumers, small businesses and eligible farming business. They do not, however, apply to large commercial or industrial consumers who use over 250,000 kWh per year. Large volume commercial or industrial consumers will continue to pay the Hourly Ontario Energy Price or spot market price delivered through Standard Supply Service.
