NEWS RELEASE
Enbridge Gas Distribution Receives Final 2007 Rate Decision from the Ontario Energy Board
TORONTO, July 5, 2007 — After close of business today, the Ontario Energy Board (“OEB”) released its Final Decision in Enbridge Gas Distribution’s (“Enbridge”) 2007 Rate Case. The Decision focused on the determination of the deemed common equity level, a degree day (volume) forecast methodology, the EnergyLinkTM program and Risk Management program that were the principal issues outstanding after a series of settlement agreements had been achieved in negotiations with intervenors. The OEB approved Enbridge’s proposed weather forecasting methodology, an increase of 1% in the equity thickness component of its capital structure and directed that the EnergyLink and Risk Management programs be discontinued.
The impact of the OEB’s Final Decision is to allow Enbridge Gas Distribution to recover an approximate additional amount of $18 million in its Final rates. The impact of these final rate changes will vary based on the amount of natural gas used. For the typical residential customer*, the changes will result in an approximate increase of $8 per annum or 1.5 per cent on their total annual bill.
The issues covered by settlement agreements negotiated in December of 2006 and January of 2007 included the amount to be recovered in rates related to capital expenditures and the ‘all other operating and maintenance’ category of expense, as well as the inclusion of Demand Side Management program costs which had been determined in an earlier proceeding. Further negotiations yielded resolution to the customer care service provision and the customer information system replacement project costs as well as the proposal to allow third parties to access the customer bill and billing envelope inclusive of a revenue sharing proposal related to that access.
In January, 2007, the original settlement agreement allowed Enbridge to recover a portion of an expected deficiency in advance of the release of the OEB’s Final Decision. Effective April 1, 2007, Enbridge received OEB approval to adjust its 2007 Interim rates to recover an annualized amount of $26 million.
Enbridge Gas Distribution is Canada’s largest natural gas distribution company and delivers natural gas to about 1.8 million customers in many Ontario communities including the GTA, Ottawa, Barrie and Niagara Falls. Enbridge Gas Distribution distributes gas in New York State through St. Lawrence Gas, in New Brunswick through Enbridge Gas New Brunswick and is affiliated with Gazifere in southwestern Quebec. Enbridge Gas Distribution is owned by Enbridge Inc., a Canadian-based leader in energy transportation and distribution.
*A typical residential customer uses 3,064 cubic metres of natural gas a year for home and water heating.

NEWS RELEASE
Ontario Municipal Board and Ministry of Environment Clear the
Way for Construction of Enbridge Wind Power Project
Construction to begin this summer, completion expected at the end of 2008
Toronto, Ontario, July 20, 2007 — The Ontario Municipal Board (OMB) and the Ontario Ministry of the Environment have removed the final hurdles for construction of Enbridge’s wind power project in Bruce County. The project is expected to produce 182 MW of electricity and, on completion, be one of the largest wind power projects in Canada.
The OMB ruled in favour of the project and the Ministry of the Environment has indicated that the project is compliant with its noise guidelines.
“Enbridge has a long history of serving customers with dependable energy and delivering conservation programs in Ontario,” said Al Monaco, President of Enbridge Gas Distribution and responsible for Enbridge’s operations in Ontario. “We are extremely pleased to be moving ahead with a renewable energy project that further illustrates our commitment to sustainability and, at the same time, will help address the province’s electricity needs.”
“I am very pleased that there has been public input into this project and that it is now moving forward,” said Carol Mitchell, MPP Huron-Bruce. “This is a very exciting project which will create much needed green energy as this riding already produces 25 per cent of the province’s clean, renewable energy.”
“This project will deliver clean, renewable energy in Ontario, which will help diversify our electricity supply mix and enhance air quality throughout the province,” said Ontario’s Energy Minister, the Honourable Dwight Duncan. “The McGuinty government is delivering on its promise to increase the amount of renewable energy in Ontario.”
“The community has been firmly behind this project throughout the process and we have worked hard to listen to and address the needs of stakeholders,” said Bob Simpson, General Manager, Enbridge Ontario Wind Power. “The people of this area understand the value and importance of clean, renewable power and they have been extraordinarily supportive. We look forward to continuing to work with them as the project proceeds.”
