UNDERSTANDING YOUR RATE OPTIONS

WHICH NATURAL GAS RATE TYPE IS RIGHT FOR YOU?

VARIABLE RATE

Follows the market price of natural gas each month. While the commodity cost of gas fluctuates monthly, Camrose Energy’s Administration Fee stays constant at $7.99, so you always know the service charge on your bill even when energy prices move.

GUARANTEED RATE

Enjoy a set price per GJ for predictable bills and easy budgeting. Ideal if you value stability and want protection from market swings.

DISCOUNTED RATE

A special lower price per GJ that offers extra savings for customers who provide a refundable prudential. This deposit helps lower the transaction fee to just $0.35 per GJ, making it one of the most cost-effective ways to heat your Alberta home or business.

SHOULD I CHOOSE A GUARANTEED OR VARIABLE NATURAL GAS RATE?

Both options have their advantages, but the variable rate has consistently offered more savings over the past year. While it does fluctuate from month to month, Alberta’s natural gas prices have remained well below the guaranteed rate of $4.45/GJ.

Over the last 12 months, the highest variable rate (not including transaction fees) was $3.52/GJ (April 2025), the lowest was $1.32/GJ (September 2025), and the average was only $2.47/GJ, nearly half the cost of the guaranteed plan. Choosing the variable rate can provide strong long-term value for customers who don’t mind minor changes in price, while the guaranteed rate remains a stable choice for those who prefer predictable billing.

WHAT IS A PRUDENTIAL?

Alberta electricity and natural gas retailers are required to pay a prudential charge to guarantee payment to energy generators and distribution utilities. To help keep rates low, Camrose Energy may ask for a refundable prudential deposit on certain discounted plans. This security deposit helps cover those industry charges and allows us to offer a reduced transaction fee of $0.35 per GJ. We explain the amount up front and return the deposit at the end of the plan or credit it to your account when terms are met.
