Our Take on Just Energy

Just Energy's five-year rates for natural gas are similar to what other competitive energy retailers ENMAX and Encor offer, but with marginally lower administration fees ($6.90 as opposed to $7.00 for Encor and approximately $7.10 for ENMAX), making the retailer the cheapest option for 5 year fixed gas rates. That being said, you may want to check out the pros and cons of fixed vs floating gas rates before you decide whether a fixed rate is right for you.

We do not recommend Just Energy's electricity offers, as they are more expensive than that offered by other competitive energy retailers in Alberta. If you are interested in Just Energy's green energy options, we recommend that you check out our article on green energy offers in Alberta.
