Alt by Alectra™ is a local energy market being developed by Alectra. It will create opportunities for eligible homes and businesses to earn money when their energy flexibility helps support the local electricity grid.

Energy flexibility means having some choice over when or how you use electricity. Depending on what you have, that could mean shifting electricity use to another time, temporarily reducing demand, using stored energy from a battery, providing eligible local generation, adjusting EV charging, or changing when equipment operates.

alt by Alectra™ is being developed for residential, business, commercial, institutional and industrial customers within Alectra's service area. Where you are located and what equipment or flexibility you have will help determine the opportunities available to you.

Examples may include smart thermostats, EV chargers, batteries, solar and storage systems, backup generation, controllable building systems, HVAC equipment, and flexible business or industrial processes. You do not need to have all of these.

Earnings will depend on factors such as how much flexibility you can provide, where you are located, the type of resource you have and when the local grid needs support. Payment details will be provided before you decide whether to participate.

No. You may already have equipment that could participate. Register your interest and tell us what you have. Alectra will keep you informed as eligibility requirements and opportunities are confirmed.

The ask will depend on local grid needs. Event timing, frequency and notice requirements will be shared as the Market Rules and individual opportunities are finalized.

Registering your interest does not commit you to participate in any event. If you later enrol in a specific market opportunity, we will clearly explain any participation expectations in advance.

Potentially. Organizations with multiple locations can identify this when they register. Alectra will assess which resources and locations may align with local grid needs.

Potentially. Eligibility will depend on the rules of both programs and any existing contractual commitments. Alectra can help you understand how alt may work alongside other programs.

No. Register your interest. Decide later. Registration is free and non-binding. It is not enrolment, and nothing will be connected or changed simply because you register.

Depending on eligibility, organizations may be able to participate directly with alt by Alectra™ or through an approved aggregator that combines and manages flexible resources on behalf of customers.
