Edmonton Utilities

[boonie]

It is all a bit confusing if you have never needed before. My daughter is moving into a place where she has to pay her utilities. The utilities have been included in previous places she has lived in. She has signed a 1 year lease. Who is best to go with and what is best.
Regulated or deregulated? Floating or fixed? Any help would be great.

I've been getting the newsletter from Solution 105 (http://solution105.com/about-us/) for a while. Here's their June suggestions:
Gas onto Direct Energy REGULATED Services. DERS. This is the default, no retailer rate.

Electricity:
Here are the best options (fixed):
- ATCOenergy has a 5.89 cents/kWh option. Rates stable for 3 years. $5.00/month admin. Free termination.
- Encor by EPCOR has a 5.89 cents/kWh option. Rates stable for 2 years. $7.00/month admin. Free termination.
- Spot Power has a 5.79 cents/kWh option. Rates stable for 1 year. $5.90/month admin. Free termination.
- Direct Energy has a lucky penny promo going on. For August and January, you can get power for 1 cent per kWh (and for 1 cent per GJ), but the other months will be at 5.99 cents/kWh for electricity and $3.69/GJ for gas. $12/month admin. Free termination.

Best floating rate option:
- Best option is ENRG Power, as their floating rate is spot plus 0.55 cents/kWh. Monthly admin fee of $5.90/month.
