Managing costs with Time-of-Use rates | Ontario Energy Board
Electricity Time-of-Use rate periods. Time-of-Use rates are different depending on when you use electricity. There are three periods: Off-peak, when demand for electricity is generally lower. Ontario households use most of their electricity – nearly two thirds of it – during off-peak hours. Mid-peak, when demand for electricity is moderate.
