Choose Your Price Option
We offer four different price options for residential customers. Learn more about each below, and choose which is best for you. Once you've decided, click on the blue "Lock in Your Price" button below for your custom price.
FIXED RATE PER THERM
THE BASICS
Your monthly natural gas commodity price per therm stays the same for the chosen term.
HOW IT WORKS
Your natural gas commodity price is set at the time of sale. Your bill is based on the natural gas commodity price that was set at the time of the sale multiplied by the total therms used each month.
WHAT IT MEANS TO YOU
Natural gas market price changes won't affect your commodity charge on your bill. Your bill will change month to month based on your monthly usage. You only pay for what you use each month.
WINTERGUARD MONTHLY BILL
THE BASICS
Your natural gas monthly bill stays the same every month for the chosen term.
HOW IT WORKS
Regardless of the natural gas market fluctuations or your natural gas usage, your bill will not change.
WHAT IT MEANS TO YOU
Simplify your budget knowing your bill will remain the same each month for the duration of your term.
MARKET INDEX RATE
THE BASICS
Your natural gas commodity price will be set each month on the floating natural gas market price plus a fixed adder per therm for the chosen term.
HOW IT WORKS
Your commodity bill is calculated using the monthly natural gas index price plus a fixed adder per therm, multiplied by the total therms used each month.
WHAT IT MEANS TO YOU
With this price option your natural gas commodity price can increase due to rising natural gas market prices, but you can also enjoy the benefit of decreasing natural gas market prices.
BLENDED SMART RATE
THE BASICS
Not sure if you want Fixed or Index pricing? The Blended price option is the best of both worlds.
HOW IT WORKS
Your natural gas commodity price is split 50-50. Half your usage is billed on the Fixed rate per therm price and half is billed on the Market Index rate per therm price plus a fixed adder per therm.
WHAT IT MEANS TO YOU
With this price option, half your usage is protected from variability in natural gas costs, and with the other half you can take advantage of any decreasing natural gas market costs.
