Calgary: The Canada Energy Regulator (CER) announced a new, interactive online report July 14 that offers Canadians a new way to assess their electricity bill.
The report titled What is in a residential electricity bill? features a province-to-province comparison of electricity bills, generation and consumption. It also explains electricity prices across the country allowing people to understand why costs vary depending on location, fees, regulation and taxes.
Interactive tools allow people to calculate the cost of household appliances and electronic use for each province and territory. For example, an individual can use the tools to find out that leaving a TV on for 24-hours in Quebec costs $5.25 per month, while that same TV on for a whole day would cost $12.29 per month in Saskatchewan, $20.49 per month in the Northwest Territories, and $15.30 per month in Nova Scotia.
