Natural Gas Rates

Natural gas is a highly dependable energy source and a great value for your energy dollar at about half the cost of oil or propane, and about 51 percent cheaper than electric resistance (for example, baseboard heating).* When Enbridge Gas is your gas supplier, you pay what we pay for natural gas, without mark-up. As a distribution company, we earn our income from the distribution and storage of natural gas.
