Equal Billing Plan
Enjoy the benefits of the Equal Billing Plan
The four winter months account for more than half of your annual natural gas costs. With our Equal Billing Plan you can reduce the impact of high winter heating bills by distributing your annual cost evenly throughout the year.
How does it work?
Using your total natural gas usage for the previous year and current gas
rates, we calculate your total expected gas bills between now and next
August and divide it into equal monthly instalments. In August of each
year we'll "true up" your EBP and credit or bill your account for any
difference between the EBP instalments that you have paid and the gas
you've used.
Each month your bill will show the cost of the gas used (see Total charges to date in the example at right), how much you've been billed through your EBP instalments (Total EBP instalments billed), and your Equal Billing Plan balance (EBP balance).
We'll review your account periodically throughout the year and may adjust your monthly EBP instalment up or down. Factors that can impact your EBP instalment include significant changes in the weather, gas rates or the amount of gas used.
Please note that if you cancel the Equal Billing Plan before the August true up, or if you move from your residence, the plan will be automatically trued up at that point and we will bill or credit your account for the difference between the EBP instalments paid and the cost of the gas you have used.
Each August, we'll review your gas usage for the previous year to determine your new instalment amount for the coming plan year. You'll automatically be re-enrolled in the plan in September for the next 12 months at your new monthly instalment amount.
