Manitoba Hydro Increases Rates Across Province
Manitoba Hydro will raise electricity rates for customers from April 1 to generate an estimated 24 million in new revenue for the fiscal year. The utility expects a 500,000 shortfall against expenses, to be covered by a transfer from the Rate Stabilization Reserve. Chairman Len Bateman cites higher costs and borrowing rates, noting isolated diesel communities face the steepest increases due to fuel and delivery costs, with continued restrictions on use there. First bills at the new rates will arrive in the second week of April.
