Alberta reveals plan to curb electricity price volatility
Energy Minister Ken Hughes announced Alberta will keep a default rate option and tighten scrutiny of new fees to reduce volatility. The plan, based on a 390 page report, will extend regulated rate option contracts from 45 to 120 days and push longer term energy purchases to smooth prices amid weather and outages. Medicine Hat, as a local energy producer, mirrors provincial default pricing.
