Manitoba Hydro has cut their natural gas rates.

Following the quarterly review of gas prices Manitoba Hydro will lower rates effective today.

Spokesperson Glenn Schneider thinks quarterly is the best way of monitoring gas because then changes whether cuts or increases are less shocking to customers.
Schneider explains the rate reduction is direct reflection of changing gas prices.

He says there are different contributing factors to determine savings but on average it will be 7% or $96 a year.
