Utilities Kingston has reviewed the rates for the natural gas commodity, transportation and storage, and cap and trade effective August 1, 2017.

Effective August 1, 2017:

  • the commodity price for natural gas will increase $0.0088 per cubic metre to $0.1469 per cubic metre, and
  • the transportation and storage price for natural gas will increase $0.0097 to $0.1314 per cubic metre, and
