Peoples is the largest natural gas distribution company in Pennsylvania, providing reliable, low cost natural gas service to approximately 700,000 customers in Western Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Kentucky. Today, Peoples continues to grow by investing in our infrastructure. We are extending pipelines and bringing natural gas to areas where it was previously unavailable. But we're more than just an energy company. We are also re-establishing ourselves as a committed community partner by supporting innovation, infrastructure, the environment, and the people who live and work in this region.

With that in mind, "Making Your Life Better" is not just a slogan. It is the aspiration of our company, the goal that we work toward every day. Whether you are a residential or commercial customer, we strive to go “above and beyond” at every opportunity.

  • We provide friendly and knowledgeable customer service, whether you have questions about service in your home or your business.
  • We offer universal services and customer assistance programs for our customers and neighbors who need help with heating bills.
  • We're working on a multi-million dollar upgrade to our gas infrastructure, so that we can reduce our carbon footprint, create more local jobs, keep our customers and communities safe, and make a long-term impact on our region’s vitality.
  • We regularly partner with organizations in our communities, supporting programs from youth sports to the big leagues, all while encouraging our own employees to make a difference.

Whether it's lower gas bills, exceptional customer service, contributions to your community, increased regional development, or cleaner air, we want you to know that these things matter to us. Because we live here, too. From the industrial age to the technology era, Peoples has been an integral part of the fabric that makes up this region, and we hope to keep it that way. By supporting our four pillars—home, business, environment, and community—we’re working to move the region forward. We're working to make your life better.

Home

Not only is Peoples a heating source for your home, we also work hard to support your home energy needs however we can. Through our website, Customer Service Center, and Marketing team, we offer information about the many benefits of natural gas appliances and energy saving tips. In addition, we help hundreds of families pay their gas bills with our customer assistance programs. Taking care of our customers means making sure we do our part to keep you safe and comfortable .

Community

Peoples is a great source of support and funding for the communities and regions we service. We have supported many worth-while causes, important community projects, and deserving organizations. And we don’t just provide monetary support. Peoples employees provide thousands of hours of volunteer service to organizations within our communities. By supporting these groups, we are committed to making an impact.

Business

We are in the business of energy, and as such, we're always interested in teaming up with businesses to help their organizations and endeavors grow. We want to help your company utilize natural gas to save big on your energy bills. Now is an interesting time for the natural gas industry, as new natural gas technologies—like fuel cells, microturbines, and natural gas vehicles—are on the rise. Whether you're about to launch a start-up or celebrate your company's 100th anniversary, we want to help you maximize your energy efficiency and make the choice that is best for you and your business.

Environment

Our commitment to preserving the environment starts with our product itself. Many people don't realize that natural gas is the cleanest of fossil fuels. In fact, natural gas is an extremely important resource for reducing pollution and maintaining a clean and healthy environment. It can be used in many ways to help reduce the emissions of pollutants into the air. At Peoples, we are constantly striving to improve our processes and infrastructure in order to actively contribute to a cleaner environment. To us, being "green" is serious commitment. It's not just our actions, it's our very mentality.
