FortisBC

FortisBC is a British Columbia energy utility and a subsidiary of Fortis Inc., delivering natural gas to more than 1,054,000 customers and electricity directly to close to 185,000 customers across the province's Southern Interior, plus liquefied natural gas from the Tilbury and Mt. Hayes facilities, renewable natural gas, and EV charging. It sits at the regulated distribution tier of the value chain — the wires-and-pipes monopoly that meters the customer — under British Columbia Utilities Commission oversight, in a province with no wholesale electricity market and no consumer energy data right. Its API posture is honestly none: no developer portal, no published API, no OpenAPI, and no Green Button. British Columbia sits outside Ontario's Green Button regulation (O. Reg. 633/21) and outside Australia's Consumer Data Right, and the Green Button Alliance reports only "minor discussions of Green Button in British Columbia to-date". Consumer usage data is reachable only by the account holder through a SiteMinder-protected customer login at accounts.fortisbc.com, or — for commercial gas customers only — pushed into the US EPA's ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager via that platform's data exchange, an arrangement FortisBC participates in rather than an API it publishes. No open market, grid, or system data is published. Consumer data closed, market data closed.

FortisBC is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Energy, Canada, Utilities, Electricity, and Natural Gas.

FortisBC’s developer surface includes engineering blog, documentation, support, and 12 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Energy & Utilities regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/fortisbc: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts. Want it done for you? Prioritized profiling — $2,500 →
