The Scale of Alberta Power

Alberta’s power runs close to 9000 megawatts

If there is an increase of 1 cent anywhere in the system, it means a 90,000 dollars exchange in every hour that .01 is in effect.

That is 2.16 million dollars a day that some one gains and some one looses.

1 cent increase in the power rate means 10 dollars increase in your power based on a 1000 kwh consumption. This makes it easy for power companies to increase their rates. Ater all, who reads their light bill?

One cent increases are impossibly high and there is no protection from this Government.
