TORONTO, Feb. 25, 2026 /CNW/ - Toronto Hydro Corporation (Toronto Hydro) today announced its financial and operating results for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Net income after net movements in regulatory balances for the year ended December 31, 2025, increased to $201.5 million, up $71.2 million from the prior year, reflecting the first year of Toronto Hydro's latest five-year rate period as approved by the Ontario Energy Board (OEB). The increase was primarily due to higher distribution revenue from OEB-approved distribution rates, net of rate riders, and increased other revenue, partially offset by higher depreciation and amortization from capital additions supporting system reliability and growth.
As part of Toronto Hydro's commitment to powering Toronto's energy needs today and tomorrow through increasing distribution grid capacity and system resiliency, it has embarked on a $5.1 billion five-year investment plan, which includes significant capital investments in the local distribution grid. Capital expenditures for the year ended December 31, 2025, were $944.1 million, an increase of $61.7 million or 7.0 per cent compared to the same period last year. Key capital initiatives in 2025 included the delivery of customer connections throughout the city, replacement of overhead and underground infrastructure, customer-initiated asset relocations and expansions, and ongoing modernization and replacement of Toronto Hydro's metering program.
