Here's a look at the charges that make up your monthly natural gas bill:

The Delivery and Service Charges on your bill are designed to recover Summit’s reasonable and necessary expenses and provide Summit with the opportunity to earn a return on its investment in the natural gas system that provides you with safe and reliable service.

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.
