How Energy Works in Fox Creek

Alberta's deregulated market means you choose your retailer. Your wire and pipeline companies keep delivering energy as normal.

Fox Creek Electricity

Electricity in Fox Creek is distributed by ATCO Electric, which maintains the power lines and reads your meter under a franchise agreement with the Town of Fox Creek. When you switch to Bright Fire as your retailer, ATCO Electric continues all delivery - we handle your rate and billing.

Never picked a retailer? Then you're on the regulated Rate of Last Resort - 12.02¢/kWh, the regulated default in the ATCO Electric service area until December 31, 2026. Bright Fire's 1-year fixed rate is 8.29¢/kWh, about 3.7¢ less, with a variable option at Market + 0.85¢/kWh.

Currently on the default rate? You can switch to our variable rate and potentially pay less - with no contract and no cancellation fee.

Fox Creek Natural Gas

Natural gas in Fox Creek is distributed by ATCO Gas (ATCO Gas and Pipelines Ltd.) under a franchise agreement with the Town of Fox Creek. ATCO Gas maintains the pipelines and handles emergencies. Switching to Bright Fire gives you competitive variable or fixed rates while ATCO continues safe delivery.

Alberta winters make natural gas a big share of your bill - our variable rate (market + $0.85/GJ) lets you benefit when wholesale prices are low, or lock in $4.39/GJ fixed.
