Rising costs force rate increase Based on ri sing tends in energy costs, rate increases for all Ontario Hydro cus- tomers were announced to- day by Hydro Chairman George Gathercole. Interim wholesale rates to municipal commissions will rise by an average of 8 per cent, while the average increase to direct industrial customers will be 12 per cent. Both of these increases are effective January 1, 1973. To retail customers (cot- tages, farms and rural residences), the average increase is 10 per cent and is effective on bills payable February 5, 1973. There has been no increase in rates to Ontario Hydro direct indust- rial and rural customers in the last two years, whereas there was an increase of 8 per cent in the interim rates to municipal electric utilities effective last July 1. Mr. Gathercole cited infla- tion and resultant escalation in costs of equipment and supplies, interest rates, wages and salaries, fuels and anti-pollution measures as the causes for the raise. The Province's 350 muni- cipal utilities, 91 large indus- trial customers served di- * rectly by Ontario Hydro and some 600,000 rural consu- mers are affected. Mr. Gatercole said the rate increases will not be suffi- cient alone to meet rising costs and that withdrawals will have to be made from the reserve. Generally speaking, this fund has been established to absorb the cost of such factors as variation in stream flows, major physical damage to plant, delays in bringing generating plants into ser- vice, and exchange risk on debts payable in foreign currency. To meet the increasing demand for power, he said Hydro is forced to build more thermal generating plants. Here Hydro is faced not only with rising fuel prices but ..also. costly anti-pollution control measures. "Inflation is the industry's most grievous problem. - However, an analysis of prices of other energy sources also reveals a sharp upward trend. And taking into account its long history of rate stability, we believe electricity will continue to be a remarkable bargain," said Mr. Gatercole.
