B, seeking approval to change the rates that Hydro Ottawa charges for electricity distribution, to be effective January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2025. Throughout 2020, Hydro Ottawa has participated in an open, public and transparent process administered by the OEB with intervenors representing different customer groups. A decision on Hydro Ottawa’s rates for 2021-2025 was issued by the OEB on January 7th, 2021. The rates approved by the OEB are lower than those that were originally proposed by Hydro Ottawa, yet are sufficient for Hydro Ottawa to maintain its distribution system in a safe and reliable manner for the next five years. Approved residential distribution rate changes summary Residential customers are charged a monthly fixed distribution charge, which covers Hydro Ottawa’s costs to safely and reliably deliver electricity from generating stations across Ontario to homes in Ottawa and Casselman.
