Ontario EV Charging Costs Drop From November 2026

📍 Drive Tesla Canada

The Ontario Energy Board announced changes to its Regulated Price Plan for households, small businesses and farms, effective November 1, 2026. The ULO plan charges 3.7 cents per kWh between 23:00 and 07:00, and the time-of-use plan sets off-peak at 9.1 cents. According to the article, fully charging an EV overnight would cost between $3 and $10 depending on the plan. Some utilities also pay customers to manage charging: Hydro One offers up to $100 in the first year, and Hydro Ottawa charges $75 to enrol plus $20 a year in parts of Kanata and Stittsville.…

🔎 Why it matters: The 3.7-cent ULO rate between 23:00 and 07:00 applies from November 1, 2026. At 20,000 km a year, a 2026 Model Y RWD (15.4 kWh/100 km per Natural Resources Canada) would cost about $114 a year in electricity alone, before delivery, regulatory charges and HST.
📈 Upside: WattsApp pays 21 points per kWh (100 points = $1) to owners with a Tesla Wall Connector Gen 3 or Universal Wall Connector, and Telemiq pays 5 to 14.5 points per kWh to any Tesla.
📉 Risk: WattsApp says its rewards are discretionary and can change, and only one app can be used per charger each year.
