NEWS RELEASE
Enbridge Gas Distribution Adjusts Prices
TORONTO, June 28 2010 Enbridge Gas Distribution Inc., a regulated natural gas distribution
utility, announced today that it has received approval from the Ontario Energy Board (OEB) for new
rates effective July 1, 2010.
For typical residential customers* who buy their gas supply and transportation from Enbridge Gas
Distribution, the changes will result in a decrease of approximately $148 annually, including the
applicable Cost Adjustment Refund. This is primarily due to decreased commodity costs.
Typical residential customers, who purchase their gas supply from a marketer and obtain
transportation services from Enbridge Gas Distribution, will see an increase of about $4 annually,
including the applicable Cost Adjustment Charge. This is primarily due to increased costs for
transporting natural gas from Western Canada and the United States.
Effective July 1, 2010, Enbridge Gas Distributions Gas Supply Charge will change from 21.16 cents
per cubic metre (¢/m3) to 17.30 ¢/m3. The Cost Adjustment includes a refund on Gas Supply of 1.09
¢/m3 effective from July 1, 2010 to June 30, 2011. Combined, these will result in an effective Gas
Supply Charge of 16.21¢/m3.
Enbridge Gas Distribution does not earn a profit on the price of natural gas. Gas supply costs are
passed through to customers without any mark-up. Any difference between forecast costs and actual
prices is either collected from or returned to customers through a Cost Adjustment.
Natural gas remains the most economical choice for home and water heating in Ontario. Over the past
five years, natural gas has been on average 45 per cent less expensive than electricity and 44 per
cent less expensive than oil.**
Enbridge Gas Distribution has a 160-year history and is Canadas largest natural gas distribution
company. Enbridge Gas Distribution is owned by Enbridge Inc., a Canadian-based leader in energy
transportation and distribution, and a Top 100 Canadian Employer for 2010. Enbridge Gas
Distribution and its affiliates distribute natural gas to about 1.9 million customers in Ontario,
New York State, New Brunswick and southwestern Quebec. For more information go to
