Chapleau Public Utilities Corporation (Chapleau Hydro) has applied to the Ontario Energy Board (OEB) to change its electricity distribution rates.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
According to Chapleau Hydro, if its application were to be approved as filed, the typical residential customer using 750 kWh of electricity per month would see an increase of approximately $1.96 per month and commercial customers in the general service (<50 kW) using 2,000 kWh per month would see a monthly increase of $17.40, as of May 1, 2019.<\/p>\n
The potential residential customer bill impact includes reductions under the Distribution Rate Protection program.<\/p>\n
The OEB will carefully review the application and encourages consumers to attend a community meeting to:<\/p>\n
