Rates for electricity and water
The Ontario government announced the Lockdown of the province to protect the province's health care system.

This lower rate will be available 24 hours per day, seven days a week starting January 1, 2021, until February 22. 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.
