Home > Customers > Farm
We understand that our farm customers have unique requirements for using
and managing electricity. In addition to a house, most farms have one
or more barns, and many have heavy machinery and heating and cooling systems
that rely on electricity.
Look here for helpful information about your bill and the payment options
you have.
Your bill explained
Hydro One Networks, like all Ontario distributors, provides you a bill
with unbundled charges. Electricity is shown separately from Delivery
and other industry-related charges, which we’re required to pass
on to you, whether or not they originate from us.
To see an overview of each line item and bill element, take a look at
a sample bill within this section
Understanding how you are billed
Knowing how you are billed will help you understand your rates and charges,
and will assist you in reading your bill. Your bill is calculated around
two main factors: how much electricity you typically use in a month
and your meter setup. Based on these, you will fall into one of two
categories:
a. For customers who typically use less than 50 kW (kilowatts)
on average per month and are set up with a standard meter(s) capable
of measuring kWh (kilowatt hours).
or
b. For customers who typically use more than 50 kW (kilowatts)
on average per month and are set up with a meter(s) capable of measuring
both kWh (kilowatt hours) and kW (kilowatts).
If you’re not sure of how you are billed, here’s
an easy way to figure it out. Take a look at the “Your new charges”
section of your bill to see your meter calculation. If that calculation
contains references to kWh (kilowatt hours), you fall under “kWh.”
If it contains references to both kWh and kW (kilowatts), then you are
billed as a “kWh and kW” customer.
For more details about your meter type and how it affects the type
of bill you receive, see Your
Bill Explained.
