Alberta’s electricity runs close to 9000 megawatts of generation.
If there is an increase of 1 cent anywhere in the system, it means a 90,000 dollars exchange in every hour.
That is 2.16 million dollars a day that some one gains and some one looses.
A 1 cent increase in the power rate means 10 dollars increase in your power bill based on a 1000 kwh consumption.
This makes it easy for power companies to increase their rates. Ater all, who reads their light bill?
A One cent increases are impossibly high and there is no protection from this Government as they have no say over "contracts" Some scam!
