Recently, the Government of Alberta amended the Regulation under the Electric Utilities Act, which establishes the default price of electricity.
- On January 1, 2025, the Regulated Rate Option (RRO) will be called the Rate of Last Resort (RoLR).
- The RoLR will be a default rate fixed for 2 years, with limits on how much it can change between 2-year terms.
- It will include a small fee of $0.01 per kWh to support the UCA’s consumer awareness initiatives.
We have updated BMPC’s Terms and Conditions, as required by the amended Regulation. Of particular note, if you’re enrolled on the RoLR, we are required to share your full contact details (full name, phone number, email address, and mailing address) with the Utilities Consumer Advocate (UCA) every two months. The UCA will contact you to inform you of your energy choices aside from the RoLR.
You can review the new Terms and Conditions by visiting bluemountainpower.coop/terms-conditions/. These changes take effect on January 1, 2025.
