Natural gas and electric rates news
Natural gas commodity rate change
The Public Utilities Board has approved revised natural gas rates effective February 1, 2026. The new rates reflect an increase in the Gas Commodity rate from 8.05¢ to 8.39¢ per cubic metre, and the Delivery rate is increasing from 15.37¢ to 15.38¢ per cubic metre. The combined bill impact for the typical residential customer’s annual natural gas bill is an increaseof approximately 1.1 per cent or $7 per year. For larger volume customers, annualized bill impacts will range from increases of 1.3 per cent to 2.8 per cent depending on customer rate class and consumption. These increases are the result of changes in the price Manitoba Hydro pays for natural gas.
Gas Commodity and Delivery rates may be adjusted each gas quarter (February, May, August, and November) for increases or decreases to the forecast costs of natural gas supply. Manitoba Hydro earns no profit on the sale of Gas Commodity. The price the utility pays is passed directly on to customers with no markup – you pay what we pay.
To assist with the impact of quarterly fluctuations caused by market prices, we offer customers the option of paying their natural gas bills in equal monthly payments through our Equal Payment Plan.
