Our ATCO Advantage Rate Plan already represents an awesome deal on energy. But since Alberta winters come with enough challenges (and, you know, it’s been a whole year of those) we thought the time was right to give Albertans an extra break.
What's the ATCO Advantage Rate Plan* anyway?
So glad you asked. Two words: Wholesale Pricing!
This plan lets you pay the same market prices we pay, but at home. Even though wholesale rates fluctuate with the market, they tend to be the best value in the long run.
Basically, we take the fuss and hidden costs out of your energy bills and give you the same deal we get as a retailer. You get access to wholesale rates, and more importantly: you can take control over your energy services.
- No mark-ups
- No monthly admin fees
- No exit fees
Know your rate options
When it comes to energy, the other guys have two basic rate options: guaranteed and variable (yep, just like taking out a mortgage on your home).
With ATCOenergy, there’s a new game in town: Wholesale rates.
Wholesale Rates
With our wholesale rates, you follow market prices without built-in markups. You pay what we pay.
Guaranteed Rates
Guaranteed rates stay the same no matter how high or low market rates go.
Variable Rates
Variable rates follow market prices but add a built-in markup on every kWh or GJ used.
