The Time-Of-Use (TOU) pricing gives consumers the flexibility to save money by conserving electricity or shifting electricity consumption from the on-peak period to the mid-peak, or off-peak periods when prices are lower. Plus, residents are able to benefit from their own energy conservation efforts. Energy conservation and load shifting reduces demand on the electrical grid, and reduces demand for new generation which is good for residents, good for utilities, and good for the environment. Oakville Hydro thanks all participants in this project and invites customers to visit its website at www.oakvillehydro.com for more information on the project, new Time-Of-Use rates, and electricity distribution services.
