Effective May 1, 2008
The Ontario Energy Board has announced that electricity pricing for Regulated Price Plan (RPP) consumers is not changing. If you buy your electricity through a contract with an electricity retailer, you will continue to pay their price.

The price for the first tier remains 5.0¢ per kWh. The price for electricity over this threshold remains 5.9¢ per kWh.
Consumers pay the lower price for the first 600 kWh per month from May to October and for the first 1,000 kWh from November until April.
The Ontario Energy Board reviews these rates every 6 months.

The Delivery line on your bill is decreasing by 2.14%. The Ontario Energy Board approves these rates annually. The Debt Retirement charges remain unchanged.

1) Customers who signed a contract with a retailer after December 9, 2002 are billed under the terms of the contract until the contract expires.
(2) Adjustment Factor
As electricity travels through the lines and transformers to your home or business, losses naturally occur throughout the electricity system. Legislation requires us to indicate the Adjustment Factor on your bill. The Adjustment Factor 1.0505 is applied to the kWh consumption read at your meter to account for the losses that occur in the electricity system. Your bill indicates the difference between the kWh consumption read at your meter and the kWh consumption you are actually billed for. The Adjustment Factor is reflected in your Electricity Charge, Transmission Charges (residential and small general service customers only) and the Wholesale Market Charge.
