Selectra energy expert opinion

Independent analysis of ONIT Energy for Ontario commercial buyers

ONIT Energy sits in Ontario's commercial energy market with a clear pitch: wholesale-style pricing for small-to-mid businesses, with industry-association endorsements behind it. Here's how we'd weigh that for a business buyer.

What ONIT does well

Industry-association endorsements

Affinity programmes with the Hotel Association of Canada, CFAA and others, useful credibility marker for members.

Shell Energy supply chain

Institutional-grade counterparty for supply settlement, meaningful for medium-term commercial procurement.

90-day cancellation clause

Cleaner exit terms than many long-form commercial contracts in Ontario, particularly useful for businesses that may downsize.

What to watch for

2020 OEB compliance event

$15,000 administrative penalty plus customer refunds after two independent brokers enrolled 6 condos without valid authorisation. Resolved, but on the record.

No public rate card

Every quote is custom, you need internal benchmarks or an external broker to know whether the offer is competitive.

B2B-only, no residential

Not a fit for homeowners, only Ontario businesses.

What's unique & good

"Boutique" SMB positioning

Designed around small-to-mid-sized businesses that big commercial brokers often overlook.

100% load-following

Less risk of volume-mismatch repricing than commercial contracts with strict tolerance bands.

Free Energy Advisor model

No-cost upfront consultation, easy to test against your incumbent before committing.

Our take

ONIT Energy is well-suited to Ontario small and mid-sized businesses, restaurants, hotels, retail chains, property managers, that want fixed-rate energy budgeting and a 1:1 advisor relationship. Always benchmark against the OEB Default Supply tariff and at least one independent commercial broker before signing.

Selectra energy expert explains

Are reviews crucial when choosing a commercial energy supplier?

For Ontario business buyers, reviews matter less than for households. The decision is driven by contract economics, exit terms and supplier stability, not by sales-team friendliness.

What to actually check on an ONIT proposal

1Energy charge (¢/kWh / ¢/m³) benchmarked against the Default Supply tariff and one other commercial supplier.
2The 90-day cancellation clause, confirm in writing how it works mid-term.
3Volume-tolerance terms, even with "100% load-following", confirm the contractual ceiling.
4Renewal clause, does the contract auto-renew at a different rate?

Bottom line

Treat the ONIT proposal as a procurement document. Reviews are useful for spotting recurring service issues; the decision should hinge on the math at your real consumption profile.
