SaskPower customers will see an average increase of 3 percent on their bills when the new year starts.
How much the increase will be in dollar amounts will vary depending on a customer’s power consumption.
SaskPower says the increase is a result of the federal carbon tax going up to 65 dollars per tonne, effective January 1st, 2023.
SaskPower says this 3 percent increase is separate from its previously announced rate increase of 4 percent, which took effect September 1st.
