**Given the small percentage changes in bill impacts, Primary Gas rates for November 1, 2012 and February 1, 2013 remain at 9.67?/m3
  • Note 1: The average annual bill effective August 1, 2011 is based on the estimated annual consumption of a typical residential customer of 2,465 cubic metres. 
  • Note 2: Residential customers receiving Primary Gas from brokers rather than from Centra would likely not have the same cost and bill experience as Centra’s customers, as their Primary Gas costs would be in accordance with their contracts with brokers, and fixed for three to five year periods at rates different than those charged by Centra. 
  • Note 3: The above table incorporates changes approved by the Board for both non-Primary Gas and Primary Gas from 1999 through to August 1, 2011.
  • Note 4: The Board’s RSM considers factors other than natural gas commodity prices, these including the cost of gas in storage and hedging results. Accordingly, the volatility in Primary Gas rates experienced by Primary Gas customers is reduced in overall effect as overall rates billed to system gas customers also take into account operating, amortization, administrative and financial costs.
