The Ontario Energy Board (OEB) is reminding households and small businesses that as of November 1, 2018, the time-of-use (TOU) price periods are changing, as is the threshold for residential customers that are paying tiered prices. TOU prices will not be changing.

The table below shows the winter Regulated Price Plan (RPP) prices that will be in effect during each TOU period from November 1, 2018 to April 30, 2019.

TOU       Periods	Winter Hours	TOU Prices No Change from May 1, 2018
Off-Peak	Weekdays from 7 p.m. - 7 a.m.                           All day weekends and holidays	6.5¢/kWh
Mid-Peak	Weekdays from 11 a.m. - 5 p.m.	9.4¢/kWh
On-Peak	Weekdays 7 a.m. - 11 a.m. and                         5 p.m. - 7 p.m.	13.2¢/kWh

For customers that do not purchase their electricity from their utility, there will be no change to the Global Adjustment (GA) credit on November 1, 2018.

The OEB will reset RPP prices and the GA credit for April 30, 2019 in a way that holds increases to the rate of inflation in accordance with legislation.
