  • As a customer, can I choose my supplier?

    Depending on where you live, you may be able to save money by switching your natural gas supplier. In Pennsylvania, you can choose the company that provides your natural gas—also known as your natural gas supplier. This means that you have the power to switch to a competing supplier who can offer the lowest price or provide a specific service you want.
