Spend less on your summer move with these 4 cost-saving energy tips

Moving season is stressful enough as it is. Between packing boxes, transporting your stuff, switching over utilities, and juggling the chaos with your regular work life, you’re probably at capacity for stress. Fortunately, of all the things you have to worry about, your energy plan doesn’t have to be one of them.

Whether you’re moving or not, there’s never a bad time to reassess your energy provider. We suggest checking out ATCOenergy.

With an award-winning customer service team and impressive call resolution rate, ATCOenergy has some of the lowest rates out there right now with electricity at only 8.88¢/kWh (trust us, that’s low).

Best of all, ATCOenergy operates locally, which means all its advisors are experts on the unique energy landscape in your province and can provide trusted guidance tailored to Albertans like you. After all, shouldn’t your energy provider be a local, born-and-raised Albertan retailer?

Here’s how you can save yourself some cash — and grey hairs — by making the switch to ATCOenergy.

The Perfect Plan for You

ATCOenergy

Newsflash: You have options when it comes to your energy retailer and plan. With ATCOenergy, you can choose between guaranteed rates, which stay the same no matter how high or low market rates go, and an Advantage (wholesale) plan, which follows market prices without any built-in markups. AKA, you pay what they pay. As the name suggests, this is a more advantageous option than your average variable plan with other retailers, because there are no additional markup fees.

You can also choose between electricity, natural gas, or both, with versatile one to five-year plans, and you can also opt to go green and source a portion of your electricity equivalent from renewables.

Your Money, Your Way

Bills can be paid through online banking, telephone banking, at the bank, through automated bank withdrawal, one-time credit card payment, pre-authorized credit card payment, and even payment through mail!
