Winter Weather Update
We’ve enjoyed a long stretch of mild winter weather that is predicted to stop in the next few weeks. Shifting forecasts are showing a sustained burst of below normal temperatures impacting the Midwest to New England. Next week is expected to be exceptionally cold with elevated gas pricing across all markets. February forecasts have also shifted notably colder.
You may have noticed gas prices have been volatile this season. Prices through November and December had a severe increase which then backed down in the first couple weeks of the year. This has now reversed. Forward gas and power prices for the balance of January and February have risen considerably in the last few days. Realgy is monitoring these developments and bringing the lowest costs possible to our customers.

A Clean Energy Revolution Is Rising in the Midwest
Major utilities envision reducing carbon emissions and using clean energy to facilitate those plans. The Midwest has stepped up to the plate promoting the shift to renewable energy. Low costs of wind power and growing use of solar are propelling Midwest utility executives to take charge in the climate change battle. Xcel, Consumers, and NIPSCO have proposed several plans to embrace renewable resources. Howard Learner, President and Executive Director of the Environmental Law & Policy Center says “utilities are beginning to make decisions based on the market of the future rather than that of the past” and “It’s a matter of environmental value and economic justification.”

PriceWatch™ for Winter 2018 – 2019
Realgy’s PriceWatchTM service continuously monitors the natural gas market to bring you the best fixed rates when it can reduce costs over a recommended time period.
Last winter was 15% warmer than a Normal winter. Previous winters have included the words “Polar Vortex”… This year’s forecast was for a warmer winter. However, it has been colder than predicted. Last winter, Realgy’s PriceWatchTM recommendation saved customers 13.7 %.
Since September, natural gas prices have increased nearly 40%; from $3.00 to over $4.00 (wholesale prices).
Realgy Energy Services, your natural gas supplier is NOT recommending that you lock in this winter’s price for natural gas. Our fixed price would be above the utility. The reason is due to this price spike. The forecasted weather was for a warmer winter, but it has been colder; that in conjunction with low storage amounts has resulted in the unexpected increase. Realgy will continue to monitor natural gas prices and will provide a fixed price when we can provide savings.
