The cost could almost double if various renewable energy sources are incorporated to offset diesel use, but that is dependent on funding from the federal government.

Qulliq Energy Corporation plans to consult the Utility Rates Review Council about a 1.25 cents per kilowatt hour refund to customers.

The power corporation is seeking to have the lower rate in place retroactively to Oct. 1 and extending to March 31, 2021 due to the lower price of fuel, which negates the need for a fuel rider.

The base rate per kilowatt hour for non-government residential customers in Iqaluit is 58.56 cents per kilowatt hour. In Gjoa Haven, it's 89.68 cents per kilowatt hour. In Resolute, it's $1.02 per kilowatt hour.
