Utilities Kingston has reviewed the rates for the natural gas commodity and transportation and storage, effective November 1, 2021:

• The commodity price for natural gas will increase by $0.0158 $/m³ to $0.1521 $/m³, and
• The transportation & storage price for natural gas will increase by $0.0096 $/m³ to $0.0608 $/m³.

The overall effect of the price changes will increase a typical residential bill (2300m³ annually) by an estimated $58.42 annually. The increases to the commodity, transportation and storage prices are related to the resurgence of the economy, which increased energy demand. These are pass-through charges and Utilities Kingston does not profit from these price increases. 

The next quarterly review of these rate components will be for February 1, 2022 implementation.
