Business Energy in Airdrie: Rates, FortisAlberta Delivery Charges and a Free Bill Review

Get Energy supplies and brokers electricity and natural gas for businesses in
Airdrie, and reviews the distribution and transmission charges on your bill — the half
most suppliers never look at. We are both an Alberta competitive retailer and an energy broker,
so we can shop the market for your Airdrie sites or supply them directly, whichever produces the
better number. It starts with a free Energy Cost Audit.

Who delivers your energy in Airdrie

Airdrie sits on FortisAlberta’s distribution system, not ENMAX’s, even though it is fifteen minutes up the highway from Calgary. If you run locations in both cities you are on two different distribution tariffs with different rate classes and different demand treatment, and the Calgary bill is not a fair benchmark for the Airdrie one.

Part of your bill Who sets it in Airdrie
Electricity delivery FortisAlberta, under a tariff approved by the
Alberta Utilities Commission. You do not choose this and you cannot shop it — but the rate
class you sit in, and the demand you set, are both reviewable.
Natural gas delivery ATCO Gas, on the same basis.
Energy — electricity and gas Your retailer. This is the part
you can shop, and the part every broker in your inbox is talking about.
Riders, franchise fees, local access Calculated off the delivery
charge, which is why reducing delivery reduces these too.

What Airdrie businesses look like on a bill

Airdrie’s business base is fast-growing retail and restaurant strips, professional and medical offices, self-storage and light industrial in the east business parks, and trades and contractor shops serving the whole north corridor.

What we look at first in Airdrie

Fortis rate classes

FortisAlberta’s small general service and general service classes have different demand treatment. A growing Airdrie business often crosses the line without anybody re-checking the classification.

New build fit-outs

A lot of Airdrie space is recent. Rooftop units, lighting and controls specified at build are frequently oversized for how the tenant actually uses the space.

Calgary comparison

We model Calgary and Airdrie sites separately, because the delivery structures genuinely differ.

Small business or commercial

We treat a site as small business up to 250,000 kWh of electricity or
2,500 GJ of natural gas a year, and as commercial above that. Small business sites
get published rates and a straightforward review. Commercial sites get quoted on their own load
profile, because at that size the shape of your consumption changes the price more than the
headline number does.

Get Energy published rates: variable electricity 7.06¢/kWh (30-day average, calculated September 8, 2026), fixed 1-year 6.57¢/kWh, variable natural gas $3.71/GJ (calculated September 5, 2026), administration fee $9.97 per site per month. Sites over 250,000 kWh or 2,500 GJ a year are quoted on their own load profile. Last updated September 12, 2026.

Book a free Energy Cost Audit

Send us one recent electricity bill and one natural gas bill. We review both halves — the
energy you buy and the delivery charges you are billed to receive it — and come back with a
written summary of what we found and what, if anything, is worth changing. No cost, no obligation,
and no requirement to switch anything.

Common questions from Airdrie businesses

Do I have to switch retailers to get the review?

No. Most of what we look at — rate class, billing demand, meter count, equipment and load
shape — sits on the delivery side and has nothing to do with who supplies your energy. If you
are mid-contract with someone else, the review still works and you can act on the findings now.

What does it cost?

Nothing. There is no fee, no retainer and no obligation. If we end up supplying your energy we
make our money the way any retailer does, on the supply. If you place your business with another
retailer on our advice, we are paid by that retailer.

Do you only work in Airdrie?

No — we serve businesses, farms and commercial properties across Alberta. Airdrie is one of
the areas we cover, and we work in the local distribution tariff that applies to your site.

How long does it take?

A few business days for a single site. Multi-site and demand-metered reviews take longer, and we
tell you up front.
