Energy market prices are more volatile.

Energy prices are experiencing more volatility than seen in the recent past, because of factors beyond a single energy provider.

Increases in electricity rates are due to market factors including, but not limited to, expectations for a colder-than-normal winter and changes in electricity supply and demand. Volatility in natural gas rates is due to factors such as lower supply across North America and anticipated demand over the winter months. Check out our Energy Saving Tips for easy and low-cost ways to reduce energy consumption.

The choice is yours.

For something we use every day, the truth is that electricity and natural gas can seem confusing. Putting it simply, in Alberta you have the unique ability to select the electricity and natural gas rate options that suit you and your home best.
