Bobcaygeon Community Expansion Project

Bringing natural gas to your community

We are expanding natural gas to your area in Bobcaygeon. Depending on the existing fuel source, households can save up to 65%* each year on home and water heating by switching to natural gas.

Every business has its own unique energy needs, for a personalized estimate on how much you can save by switching to natural gas email at ceapplications@enbridge.com and we will let you know!

The proposed pipeline routing below is subject to change during the design and execution phases of the project. Check back often for the latest information about the project and start saving!

This project includes the construction of approximately 115 km of natural gas pipeline, made possible by:

  • A $1/ month contribution from new and existing natural gas utility customers in Ontario, which was implemented on July 1, 2019.
  • An expansion surcharge (ES) of $0.23 per cubic metre of natural gas used will apply to all customers who connect to the community expansion pipe until the end of the expansion surcharge term.
    • For example if a residential home used 2,320 m3 of natural gas per year this charge would be $0.23m3 x 2,320m3 / 12 months = $44/month.
    • The ES is typically higher in the winter months when the heating system is in use vs summer months.

We’re working in many project areas across Ontario as we prepare for future natural gas community expansion project, as part of the Ontario Government’s Natural gas Expansion Program. Area residents may see our crews completing soil sampling, land surveying, test digs and holding field meetings, which are all activities that help inform our project routes and timelines for construction. While this pre-work is ongoing, you may occasionally notice equipment in operation, and some noise; we apologize for any inconvenience this might cause.

Each project comes with its own complexities, regulatory requirements, permits, and consultation timelines, which are all factors in determining a project's start time and specific pipe location. We are currently working through those conditions and requirements now, and are not in a position to share finalized project routes at this time.

This work is being conducted by Enbridge Gas employees, or contractors working on our behalf. All employees and contractors carry identification at all times.

Use our calculator to see how much you could save by switching to natural gas

Your savings will depend on the appliances you have, the type of energy you use (electric, oil, propane or wood) and the natural gas equipment you choose when making the switch. Use our calculator to help give you an idea of how much you could save.

Let us know you’re interested!

Use this form to contact us to let us know if you’re interested in switching natural gas. Our expansion team will get in touch with you and answer any questions you may have.

Completing this Expression of Interest is not an application for natural gas, or a binding contract by either you or Enbridge Gas for natural gas service. The Expression of Interest is intended to help us understand community interest in converting to natural gas if it were to become available. Pending regulatory approvals, we anticipate that we will begin to accept natural gas applications for this expansion project in summer 2023.

* For residents in formerly served by Union Gas service territory: Natural gas prices are based on Rate M1 rates in effect as of April 1, 2023 and include the $0.23 per mm3 expansion surcharge. Oil price is based on the latest available retail price. Electricity rates based on Hydro One Distribution rates (Mid-density R1) as of Jan. 1, 2023 and Regulated Price Plan (RPP) customers that are on Time-Of-Use (TOU) pricing. They include the new Ontario Electricity Rebate (OER). The propane price comparison is based on the lowest price obtained in an area survey conducted quarterly. Since individual fuel prices vary, savings assumptions may or may not be as accurate in your situation. Please use the savings calculator found on this page for a more accurate savings estimate. Costs have been calculated for the equivalent energy consumed and include all service, delivery and energy charges. Carbon price is included for all energy types as reported. HST is not included.
