Leduc sits on Highway 2 about 33 km south of Edmonton, near Edmonton International Airport. It is a city of about 34,000 residents whose name went down in Alberta history with the 1947 Leduc No. 1 oil discovery, and its power arrives over FortisAlberta's wires. The retailer that prices your energy is still your choice. Bright Fire offers 8.29¢/kWh fixed electricity and $4.39/GJ fixed natural gas from Whitecourt, about 210 km to the northwest.

"Utilities" in Leduc means two separate bills. The City of Leduc bills water, sewer, stormwater and waste collection on a City utility account. Electricity and natural gas arrive on one bill from the retailer you choose, and that bill includes the regulated delivery charges from the wires and pipeline companies. Only the retailer part is your decision.

Energy charge only: 600 kWh multiplied by the rate. FortisAlberta delivery and transmission charges are the same on every retailer and are not included. Bright Fire's $9.99/month administration fee, rate riders, other retailer fees and GST are also not included, so these are not full bill totals. Your own usage will differ from 600 kWh. The Rate of Last Resort is set until December 31, 2026. Weekly market context is in the Alberta Energy Market Report.
*On approved credit. Admin fee of $9.99/month per site applies. Fixed-rate natural gas contracts have a $250 early exit fee. View all plans →
