Ontario Electricity Rebate
The Ontario Electricity Rebate (OER) is a provincially funded credit that reduces the pre-HST portion of your electricity bill by 23.5 per cent. If you qualify, the rebate will appear as a separate line item labelled “Ontario Electricity Rebate” on your monthly Hydro Ottawa bill.
If you're a residential customer, the rebate is automatically applied each month.
Are you a small business, multi-unit residential building or other non-residential customer?
Small businesses, farms, long-term care homes, retirement residences, multi-unit residential complexes and mobile home parks may also qualify for the OER.
