As of November 1, 2020, residential and small business customers have a choice between two price plans: Time-of-Use or Tiered. For more information on each plan, or to switch plans, visit Customer Choice.
The winter Time-of-Use (TOU) hours and the winter Tier threshold for residential customers are effective November 1, 2021.
