Green Tips
peeksaverThere are three time-of-use periods identified:
  • Off Peak (24 hours a day on weekends and holidays as well as weekday evenings after 7pm): the demand for electricity and the cost is lowest during this time.
  • Mid Peak (Weekdays only – 11am – 5pm in the winter months, morning and early evening in the summer months): Moderate energy demand and price.
  • On Peak (Weekdays only – morning and early evening in winter months, 11am – 5pm in summer months): times of the day when energy use and price is the highest.

Summer Rates
(May 1 - October 31)
In the summer, we traditionally have just one peak period in the middle of the day between 11 a.m. and 5 p.m. This is mainly due to air conditioning use during the hottest hours of the day.

Winter Rates
(November 1 - April 30)
The winter gives us two peak periods. This is because our days are shorter and in the morning when most people get up, lights and appliances are turned on and heating systems are turned up. The pattern repeats later in the day around the dinner hour.

Weekends and Holidays
(All year)
Demand, and electricity prices are lower on weekends and holidays - as well as overnight.
