When was the last time you actually looked at your electricity bill?
If it's been a while, you're not alone. Most of us look at the total and move on but taking a couple of minutes to understand what's on your bill can be really helpful.
Your electricity bill is made up of a few different parts. Some charges like transmission, distribution, local access fees and other regulated charges are there no matter which electricity retailer you choose. Those help pay for delivering electricity to your home and maintaining the grid. They aren't set by your retailer.
The parts that can change are your electricity rate, which depends on the plan you've chosen, and your retailer's administration fee. Those are the areas where comparing retailers can make a difference.
At Camrose Energy we think understanding your bill should be simple. If you've ever wondered what a charge means or why it's there, give us a call. We're always happy to walk through it with you. No pressure. Just a conversation with a local Alberta team that's here to help.
