WHY CHOOSE CAMROSE ENERGY FOR YOUR ALBERTA ELECTRICITY?

YOUR ELECTRICITY, YOUR CHOICE

At Camrose Energy, we believe Albertans should have more choice than just sitting on a default electricity plan.

We offer electricity service across Alberta with clear rates, friendly local support, and options that can fit your home, farm, or business. You might want the steady feel of a guaranteed rate, the possible savings of a variable rate, or a Solar Club® option for your solar powered home or farm.

Our Camrose based team is here to help you understand your options and choose what makes the most sense for you. As a locally owned Alberta company, we also believe more of your energy dollars should stay connected to the communities we all live in.

WHAT IS THE RATE OF LAST RESORT (RoLR)?

The Rate of Last Resort, or RoLR, is Alberta’s fixed electricity rate for customers who haven’t picked a competitive electricity retailer. It replaced the old Regulated Rate Option, also called the RRO, on January 1, 2025.

Instead of changing every month like the old RRO did, the RoLR stays the same for two years at a time. After those two years, the Alberta Utilities Commission reviews it and approves the next rate. That new rate can only go up or down by up to 10 percent at the end of the term.

With Camrose Energy, you’ve got choices outside of the RoLR. Our guaranteed rate and variable rate options give you more control, clearer pricing, and a chance to avoid paying more than you need to.

If you’re wondering how your current electricity rate compares to the RoLR, our Camrose team can walk you through today’s options and help you see what makes the most sense for your home, farm, or business.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR RATE OPTIONS

COMPARE ELECTRICITY RATE TYPES AND FIND THE BEST FIT

Camrose Energy offers several ways to power your home or business. Each plan is designed to keep costs transparent and service local:

GUARANTEED & DISCOUNTED RATES

hoose a set price per kWh for easier budgeting. Our guaranteed rate gives you steady pricing, while our discounted rate offers a lower price with a refundable prudential deposit. Both options keep things simple with no long contracts or hidden fees.

VARIABLE RATE

Our variable rate often sits lower than the current guaranteed rate. With RateRewind™, you’ll get rate updates before billing and can switch to a guaranteed rate as far back as your last meter read if rates start trending higher.

RATE OF LAST RESORT

The government-set default electricity rate reviewed every two years. It is usually higher than our guaranteed or discounted plans and is the least cost-effective option for most Alberta customers.

WHAT IS A PRUDENTIAL?

A prudential is a fully refundable security deposit that may be needed on some discounted electricity plans.

It helps protect against missed payments, and in return, it lets us offer extra savings on those plans. As long as your account stays in good standing, the prudential is returned when the plan ends, or it can be used as a credit toward future bills.

Our team will explain the details before you sign up, so you know what the deposit is for, how it works, and when you can expect it back.

ELECTRICITY QUESTIONS FROM ALBERTA CUSTOMERS ANSWERED

WHAT IS THE BEST ELECTRICITY COMPANY IN ALBERTA?

The best company is one that combines competitive rates with dependable service. Camrose Energy delivers guaranteed electricity plans, friendly Camrose-based support, and a community-driven approach that big corporate providers can’t match.

WHICH ELECTRICITY COMPANY PROVIDES THE BEST SERVICE?

Service is about people. At Camrose Energy, you can call and talk to Denise, Maurina, or another local team member who will clearly explain rates, answer questions, and help you switch without hassle.

ARE THERE ELECTRICITY COMPANIES NEAR ME?

Yes. Camrose Energy proudly serves customers across most of Alberta, and our friendly office is right here in Camrose. Even if you live hours away, you are a neighbour to us.

With knowledgeable local staff, clear electricity rates, and easy sign-up, we make sure Albertans everywhere can enjoy the friendly, community-focused service that sets Camrose Energy apart.

WHAT IS THE AVERAGE COST OF ELECTRICITY IN ALBERTA?

That depends. If you’re one of the many Albertans still on the Rate of Last Resort (RoLR), the average cost is currently around 12 cents per kWh and can change every month. Camrose Energy offers lower guaranteed electricity rate options that save you substantially versus the RoLR, and give you peace of mind knowing what your bill will look like. Our local Camrose team can walk you through today’s choices and find the plan that fits your home, farm, or business.

HOW DO I KNOW IF I'M PAYING TOO MUCH FOR ELECTRICITY?

That one’s easy.  Simply bring in or send us a recent Alberta electricity bill and our local team will compare rates and explain where the costs are coming from.

HOW CAN I REDUCE MY ELECTRICITY BILL?

Switch from the RoLR to a guaranteed or discounted plan, use energy-efficient appliances, and explore our Solar Club™ if you produce solar power.

DO I HAVE A CHOICE IN MY ELECTRICITY PROVIDER?

With electricity, you usually do have a choice when it comes to your provider unless forbidden by an REA or municipality.

WHY WOULD I CHOOSE CAMROSE ENERGY?

Because we’re locally owned and operated, offer transparent electricity rates, and provide friendly, knowledgeable service with no hidden fees.
Our friendly Camrose team can explain how RoLR works, compare today’s rates, and help you switch to a plan that provides stability and peace of mind for your Alberta home, farm, or business.

CAN CAMROSE ENERGY HELP ME GET OFF THE RoLR?

Yes! We can help customers who are currently on the RoLR and make it easy to switch to a more predictable plan.

HOW DO I SWITCH TO CAMROSE ENERGY?

It’s simple! Pick your plan, call our Camrose office at (780) 781-4115, and we’ll handle the rest with no interruption to your electricity service.

We believe that when you build connection, you build community. At Camrose Energy, that belief is at the heart of everything we do. We’re proud to be an Alberta-based company, built by people who live and work right here. Whether it’s supporting local events, donating to local causes, or simply being available when you call, we’re committed to creating real, lasting connections.

Switching is quick, free, and handled by real people right here in Camrose, Alberta. Compare rates online or give us a call at (780) 781-4115 to talk with Denise, Maurina, or Cameron today.

WHAT IS A SITE ID AND WHY DO I NEED IT FOR SIGN UP?

Your Site ID is a 13 digit number that shows the electricity or natural gas service location for your Alberta home, farm, or business.

You’ll need this number when you switch to Camrose Energy. It helps us make sure your new electricity, natural gas, or Solar Club® plan is connected to the right meter.

You can usually find your Site ID on your current utility bill. If you don’t have it handy, you can use our lookup tool by entering your address and town.
