Burlington Hydro Inc. has applied to the Ontario Energy Board to change its electricity distribution rates effective May 1, 2021. If the application is approved as filed, a typical residential customer and a typical general service customer of Burlington Hydro Inc. would see the following increase:
Residential (750 kWh) | $2.73 per month |
General Service less than 50 kW (2,000 kWh) | $6.21 per month |
Other customers, including businesses, may also be affected.
Burlington Hydro Inc. has also applied to charge non-carriers a different pole attachment charge for access to its power poles than carriers and requested approval of an Advanced Capital Module to implement a new Enterprise Resource Planning system. It is important to review the application carefully to determine whether you may be affected by these changes.
