    Save Money on Your Gas Bill with Our Customer Assistance Program

CAP participants are given affordable, monthly, long-term bill payment plans so they can maintain their gas service. The payments are based on their income, not their gas usage. CAP participants make affordable payments to maintain service by paying between 8-10 percent of their total monthly before-tax income each month.

To qualify for CAP, customers must meet the following criteria:

  • Your household income meets the guidelines below.
  • You must be a current Peoples customer with active residential heating service.
