Disconnections Suspended

As part of our ongoing commitment to customers during the COVID-19 pandemic, we'll be extending the current suspension of electricity disconnections, so residential and small business customers don’t have to worry about being without electricity during this time.

  • On March 19, 2020, the Ontario Energy Board announced that effective immediately the provincial winter disconnection ban for residential customers, scheduled to end on April 30, 2020, is to be extended by an additional three months (July 31, 2020)
  • The OEB is also extending the disconnection ban to include all other low-volume customers, such as small business customers for reason of non-payment until  July 31, 2020.

Electricity Support Programs

Electricity Support Programs are available to customers that may need help managing electricity costs.

  • The Low-Income Energy Assistance Program (LEAP), which provides emergency financial relief to eligible low-income customers to avoid having their service disconnected.
  • The Ontario Electricity Support Program (OESP), which enables eligible low-income customers to receive a fixed monthly credit on their electricity bills.

Time-of-Use Periods

The Government of Ontario is providing temporary 45-day emergency relief to support Ontarians impacted by the global COVID-19 outbreak. As of Tuesday, March 24, 2020, households, farms and small businesses who pay Time-of-Use electricity rates will be charged off-peak rates 10.1 cents/kWh, 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Electricity used before March 24 won't show the 24/7 off peak rate of 10.1 cents kWh. The 24/7 off-peak rate will be reflected on bills for electricity used starting March 24th onward. More details are available at Ontario Energy Board website www.oeb.ca.

Off peak price of 10.1 cents per kilowatt hour

Fraud Alert

Be aware that there have been reports of fraudsters trying to take advantage of electricity customers during this COVID-19 pandemic. Please note that Energy+ never threatens immediate disconnection and will never ask a customer to call a 1-800 number to make a payment. Here is more information on how to protect yourself against fraud.

Keeping You Informed

We continue to monitor the situation closely and will implement new measures as the situation progresses.

New developments or updates will be updated on this page, shared on our Newsroom and posted on Twitter and Facebook.
