The cost of natural gas—the Gas Supply Rate (GSR)—is the cost we pay to regional suppliers, plus fixed delivery costs and true-up adjustments. This is simply a pass-through cost. There is no markup, and we make no profit on the GSR—you pay what we pay based on your usage.

How is the Cost of Natural Gas Determined and Why Does it Change?

The price of natural gas, the supply charge, is determined by regional and national markets and passed on directly to customers. The cost we pass on to you is filed with our regulators. While we do not control the price of natural gas, we work hard to secure the lowest and most affordable gas prices we can for our customers.
