Our Analysts Are There For You

Have you ever wondered what would happen if, for one reason or another, you could no longer meet your basic energy requirements? Because the price of hydroelectricity was too high or because of an overly zealous recovery policy? To avoid this kind of situation, we defend four great principles on your behalf:

Affordable price

To ensure that you are able to meet your essential energy needs at price you can afford.

Accessibility.

To ensure that you have easy access at all times to an energy supply service as well as effective recourse in the event of a problem.

Safety.

To promote the safety of the energy supply.

Sustainable development.

To ensure that your basic energy needs are met without compromising the capacity of future generations to meet theirs.

We defend your interests to the Régie de l’énergie on a number of issues, for example, when Hydro-Quebec, Gaz Métropoltain or Gazifère Inc submits a request for a rate increase or a request related to service conditions (opening an account, disconnection, etc). We also defend your interests to the provincial and federal governments. Examples? We participate in parliamentary committees on energy. We put pressure on elected officials so that they will support the creation of measures to help low-income households pay their bills, etc.

We intervene directly with the key actors in the energy sector. For example, we take part in Hydro-Quebec’s round table discussions about payment and recovery agreements. We participate on Gaz-Métropolitain’s energy effectiveness management fund committee, etc.
