HYDRO- RATE CHANGE ENE ITS ALONT 1 On January 1, 1944, The Hydro -Electric Power Commission of Ontario inaugurated a new uniform rate for the supply of electricity to all consumers served direct by the Commission, in the rural areas of Ontario. This new rate has many advantages and provides a saving to most Farm and Hamlet users. The principal beneficial features of the new rate are as follows: 1 All Rural Power Districts are now co-ordinated into one Rural Provincial Power System with a uniform meter rate applying throughout. ZThe estimated saving to Rural Ontario per year is an amount exceeding $500,000.00, equivalent to 10 percent of the Commission's total revenue from Rural consumers in 1943. 3 4 The service charge for Farm users has been removed. The service charge to Hamlet consumers has been cut in half. 5 The majority of all Rural customers (approximately 97 percent) are benefited by this rate change, only a small number (approximately 3%) are adversely affected to a minimum extent. Individual Bills Vary with Use of Electricity CHECK ALL THREE In making direct comparisons between your power bill under the new rate and that for a similar period under the previous rate, several conditions must be considered. These conditions include the amount of electrical energy used (kilowatt-hours), the former meter rate, and the demand or peak load where additional equipment has been installed. For example, your first bill under the new rate may be higher than the bill you received a year ago for the same period, because of increased use, i.e. higher kilowatt-hours. In such cases, a fair comparison can only be made by calculating the bill, using the increased consumption at the old rate, and comparing this amount with your present bill. INCREASED LOAD COMPARE YOUR USE Again, many customers such as garages, service stations, refresh- ment stands, etcetera, have increased their demand by installing additional or larger equipment. In such cases, their bills may now be increased, since the higher demand or peak load results in a larger number of kilowatt-hours being billed under the first and second block rates. Some consumers using electricity in very small amounts have received minimum bills. In these cases it should be noted that they are entitled to use additional electricity, as allowed for in the minimum charge, without extra cost. 2\ USE WHAT YOU PAY FOR These explanations are given as a guide to assist you in applying the new rates. If you need further information, ask your Rural District Superintendent. NEW SERVICES Wartime restrictions and difficulties add considerably to the problem of providing electric service. Your Rural District Superintendent will connect approved farm services as quickly as the shortage of materials and manpower will permit. THE HYDRO -ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION OF ONTARIO
