New Hamilton Water Billing Coming Soon: Starting December 2025, the City of Hamilton’s Hamilton Utilities Billing will take over water, wastewater/stormwater billing from Alectra Utilities, allowing Alectra to continue to focus on providing electricity services. Until then, water or wastewater/stormwater billing, payments, and invoices will remain unchanged. This transition will not affect water, wastewater/stormwater rates.

Alectra Utilities is working closely with the City of Hamilton to achieve a seamless transition for customers and provide focused customer service. Learn more at: hamilton.ca/HUB.
