Your gas bill is made up of two separate components: base rates and commodity costs. 

Base rates are charges related to the delivery of your natural gas through our pipeline infrastructure. They also the cover the costs to operate and maintain our pipeline distribution system, which entails more than 15,000 miles of pipeline throughout our 18-county service territory. Each year, Peoples replaces approximately 200 miles of aging infrastructure with new pipelines in order to continue providing safe and reliable service, while also reducing greenhouse gas emissions. 

Commodity (or gas) costs generally generally represent about half of a customer’s bill and are adjusted quarterly based on market conditions. Peoples does not benefit from commodity or capacity costs of gas; we are required by law to buy the most reliable gas supply at the lowest available cost.  

Peoples purchases gas for its customers and passes along the cost without benefit to the company. Customers are able to choose other suppliers through the Customer Choice Program. Watch the video at the top of this page for a breakdown of what your natural gas bills pays for each month. 

Upgrading and modernizing infrastructure is a significant challenge our entire country faces. It’s easy for us all to see the wear and tear on roads and bridges, but the natural gas pipelines that power and heat your homes and businesses are buried under our feet. As these pipelines age, they face the same challenges as roads and bridges: corrosion, damage from digging impacts, ground shifting, flooding and more. Older pipelines may be made of bare steel or cast iron, which grow more susceptible to leaks as they age.  

We prioritize the most at-risk components of our distribution system first, upgrading aging pipes with state-of-the-art materials that limit leaks and corrosion and are flexible to withstand freeze and thaw cycles. 

To date, we’ve replaced more than 1,200 miles, as we continue toward our 2034 goal of replacing 3,000 miles of aged pipeline, so you can continue to enjoy the benefits of natural gas for generations to come. 

The PUC approved Peoples’ use of  a Weather Normalization Adjustment (WNA) mechanism beginning with bills rendered on October 1, 2024. WNA is a method to adjust a customer’s bill due to variations from expected temperatures, and is used by many gas utilities in Pennsylvania and elsewhere. The WNA will make bills more predictable by making an adjustment for the difference between actual temperatures and normal temperatures if conditions differ from normal by more than three percent (3%). The WNA will only be applied to bills rendered between October 1 and May 31. Learn more about the Weather Normalization Adjustment 

There are two easy ways to determine which division you belong to just by looking at your bill.

Each division has a different phone number to call for General Information, and a different mailing address to send in your monthly payment.

If the number for General Information (listed at the top of your bill on both the front and back sides) is 1-800-764-0111, you are a Peoples Natural Gas Division customer. If the number is 1-800-222-5101, you belong to the Peoples Gas Division.

You can also confirm your division by the address listed on the portion of your bill that is detached and sent in with your payment. PNGD customers mail their payments in to PO Box 644760, while PGD customers mail their payments in to PO Box 747105.

Additionally, you can call our Customer Service Center to confirm which division you belong to.

Peoples received approval to merge PNGD and PGD as part of its base rate adjustment that took effect in September 2024. Customers rates will be fully combined by Fall 2025.

There are many benefits of natural gas. It is an essential energy source that supplies nearly one-third of all the energy in the United States. It is the earth’s cleanest traditional fuel and is safe, reliable and accessible. Natural gas is, on average, 3.3 times more affordable than electricity, according to a 2023 analysis from the U.S. Department of Energy.

Natural Gas is also very reliable, with only 1 in 800 gas utility customers experiencing an unplanned outage in the average year, according to the American Gas Association.

The growing usage of natural gas has also led to a better environment. Pennsylvania’s energy-related carbon dioxide emissions dropped 30% between 1970 and 2021, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration. Energy-related CO2 emissions also recently hit a 30-year low thanks in large part to the growth of natural gas as an energy source, according to the AGA. Emissions from natural gas distribution systems in the U.S. have also decreased by 69% since 1990, thanks to infrastructure modernization and improved leak detection and repair processes.

Peoples has a sister utility in Kentucky, Delta Natural Gas, which serves approximately 40,000 customers in the Bluegrass State. Delta Natural Gas also includes customers of the former Peoples Gas Kentucky. Delta is regulated by the Kentucky Public Service Commission.   

Our Kentucky rates can be found on the Delta Natural Gas Company website.
