Rate Design
Enbridge Gas proposes to set the SES and TCS at a fixed volumetric rate of $0.23/m3 applicable to small volume customers served by expansion and extension projects as defined above. The SES and TCS are in addition to Enbridge Gas's base distribution rates as approved by the Board from time to time for applicable customers. The SES and TCS will be available to customers in general service rate classes in the EGD and Union rate zones. Enbridge Gas proposes to update Rider I in the EGD rate zone and the Rate 01, Rate 10, Rate M1 and Rate M2 rate schedules in the Union rate zones to include a provision for the SES and TCS fixed volumetric rate of $0.23 cubic metre for general service customers. The draft rider and rate schedules are provided at Exhibit C, Tab 1, Schedules 1 and 2. There are no rate schedule changes required for the HAF.
