What steps are we taking to manage natural gas price volatility?

We want what our customers want:  an ample supply of natural gas at affordable prices.  And consumers love natural gas – but they do not like surprises.  So natural gas utilities take a number of actions to stabilize natural gas prices and help consumers deal with fluctuations in their energy bills:

• Membership in MGAG – As a Member of the Municipal Gas Authority of Georgia, one of more than 70 Municipally-owned and operated systems in the country,  we are actively taking steps to reduce the impact of wholesale natural gas prices on consumers. The Gas Authority aggregates the natural gas supply needs of its 73 Member systems to negotiate better volume pricing through greater economies of scale.   
• Billing plans – Consumers may pay ahead during warmer months to help ease the burden of higher winter gas bills.
