Regulated Price Plan (RPP) - Tiered Prices
Customers who purchase electricity from Wellington North Power Inc. are charged the following rates for electricity consumption. These rates are set by the Ontario Energy Board as part of the Regulated Price Plan and were charged for your energy consumption until the end of December 2011. Time of Use pricing became effective from your January 2012 electricity consumption and will appear on your February 2012 billing.
If you purchase electricity from an electricity retailer, the prices you pay will be different and will be stated in the contract you signed.
The threshold that defines higher and lower electricity prices for residential Regulated Price Plan consumers is set at 600 kilowatt hours per month during the summer (May 1st to October 31st) and 1,000 kilowatt hours per month during the winter (November 1st to April 30th). This difference recognizes that consumers use more electricity for lighting and indoor activity in the winter and that some Ontarians are reliant on electricity for their heating source.
The threshold for non-residential RPP consumers remains at 750 kilowatt hours per month for all seasons.
