Does this estimate equal my final BC Hydro bill?

No. It estimates the basic and energy charges from the selected residential rate. Taxes, riders, credits, adjustments and account-specific items are excluded.

Does Bremo send my electricity use anywhere?

No. Calculator values stay in the browser. Bremo records only fixed anonymous interaction-stage labels through its same-origin measurement endpoint.

Calculate basic and energy charges

Use the same billing period and total kWh shown on your bill. The entered numbers are not transmitted.

Use only if the account is enrolled. Overnight is 11 p.m.–7 a.m.; on-peak is 4–9 p.m.

Overnight kWhOn-peak kWh

These two amounts may be less than total use, but cannot add up to more than total use.

Formula: tier threshold = days × 22.1918 kWh. Tiered = days × $0.2344 + first-tier kWh × $0.1187 + remaining kWh × $0.1408. Flat = days × $0.25 + kWh × $0.127. Time-of-day is a separate −$0.05 overnight / +$0.05 on-peak adjustment.

Three checks before acting on the estimate

Match the period

A 60-day bill has twice the first-tier allowance of a 30-day estimate. Use the exact number of billing days.

Separate rate from usage

Compare kWh with the prior matching season. A dollar change may come from usage, rate, credits or account adjustments.

Move flexible use carefully

If enrolled in time-of-day pricing, shifting eligible use out of 4–9 p.m. can change the adjustment. Comfort and safety come first.
