Tillsonburg Hydro 2026 Electricity Rate Application (EB-2025-0007)

Official title: 2026 electricity distribution rates, IRM

open Regulations & Permits Finance & Consumer Natural Resources
Tillsonburg Hydro Inc. is asking the Ontario Energy Board to approve its electricity distribution rates for 2026. This is an Incentive Rate-setting Mechanism (IRM) application, which adjusts rates based on a formula rather than a full cost review. The OEB is reviewing the application and has issued staff questions to the utility.

Why This Matters

If you get your electricity from Tillsonburg Hydro, this decision directly affects your monthly bill. The delivery charges on your bill could go up or down depending on what the OEB approves. Even small rate changes add up over a year.

What Could Change

The OEB will decide whether to approve Tillsonburg Hydro's proposed rates for 2026. If approved, the new distribution rates would take effect and appear on customer bills. The Board may approve the rates as proposed, modify them, or require additional justification.

Key Issues

  • What electricity distribution rates should Tillsonburg Hydro charge in 2026?
  • Are the proposed rate adjustments justified under the IRM formula?

  1. Review the application documents filed by Tillsonburg Hydro, including the rate application and rate generator model.
  2. To participate formally in this proceeding, you may need to file a letter of intervention with the OEB. Check the case management letter for procedural details and deadlines.
