Consumers average price last winter (2015/16) was $3.204

Realgy Energy services last winter (2015/16) was $3.086 or $0.118 less! On average, we saved customers who selected Realgy nearly $98 of savings last winter.

Yet, Consumers Energy is bragging that it can utilize its storage assets to reduce their cost of natural gas; they forecast this winter’s rate at $3.60.  Storage is common for all northern gas utilities as the use of gas could exceed the pipelines delivers of natural gas during very cold periods or if the pipeline is interrupted.

So, Consumers uses the storage to prevent running out of gas during cold winter days. Unfortunately, they keep the economic advantage for only customers who don’t use Consumer’s Energy Choice service. Consumer’s Energy Choice allows its residents to choose their natural gas provider, Realgy’s savings have been nearly $129 for the last 12 months compared to Consumers.

In Indiana and Illinois, the choice of an energy supplier includes their allotment of storage. In this way, Realgy allows the customer to store Winter Gas at Summer PricesTM.

Here is how it works:

Realgy supports Consumer’s Energy Choice program and that storage assets should benefit ALL Consumer Energy customers.
