Albertans can now apply for the one-time Alberta Energy Rebate, delivering more savings with more flexibility to families across the province. With direct payments of $100 to each eligible Albertan, the rebate will offer real, immediate relief on the cost of fuel, groceries, utilities and other household needs.
From July 1 to Sept. 30, eligible Albertans can access the secure online portal to submit their application by visiting alberta.ca/alberta-energy-rebate.
“The Alberta Energy Rebate goes beyond fuel costs. It's about making sure more Albertans are receiving the right supports, when and where they need them most. By delivering payments directly, we are guaranteeing relief reaches more Albertans now, not later.”
The Alberta Energy Rebate provides 50 per cent more savings to the average Albertan than they would have saved on fuel taxes over the course of three months. Almost 3.4 million Albertans can benefit from the energy rebate, providing predictable financial support that Albertans can count on.
