Electrical Rates
Carbon Charge Information (click for dropdown)
Effective January 1, 2025, Saskatoon Light & Power (SL&P) customers will see an increase in the Carbon Charge rate on their utility bills. For residential customers, the increase will vary depending on their electrical consumption but will amount to 1.65% on average. This is a result of the Carbon Tax on emissions from electricity generation, which was established in 2019 and has increased annually. The Carbon Charge rate is applied on a kilowatt-hour (kWh) basis.
SL&P fees and rates can be found at saskatoon.ca/ElectricalRates.

The City has historically set its rates to match those established by SaskPower. This is to ensure there are no inequities between utility customers regardless of whether their property is within the SL&P or SaskPower franchise area.
The Consumption Calculator below gives you a detailed snapshot of the rates used to calculate your electrical charges after you enter your number of service days and usage; this Sample Utility Statement shows you the numbers you'll need to enter. (Commercial customer, also enter your KVA).
