Wednesday, April 4, 1945 i^n KLKSHERTON ADVANCE Another Hydro Rate Reduction For All Rural Consumers A further Rural rate reduction from 4c to 3^c per kilo- watt hour on the first block of energy used in any one month by Hydro Rural consumers, will go into effect on all bills rendered on or after May 1st, 1945. This Rural rate reduction will mean a saving of approx- imately $300,000 a year to Hydro Rural consumers. The New Uniform Rate Structure Will Be: 3V2C per kilowatt hour for first block of energy (formerly 4c.) 1-6|10 per kilowatt hour for the second block of energy. %c per kilowatt hour for all ackHtional energy. £ No service charge on Farm Service ... a ser- vice charge of 56c grots per month on Hamlet Service. The more Hydro you use the less it costs on the average per kilowatt hour. Increased use therefore brings lower costs. The important revisions in Rural rates, made effective in January 1944, have resulted in a greater use of energy, enabling the Commission to further reduce the cost of electricity to Hydro Rural consumers in Ontario.
