Deregulation / Energy Procurement

“Deregulation” is the process of lessening the amount of government restrictions and oversight applied to private companies. The natural gas industry has been gradually deregulated over the past ten years. Before deregulation, utilities charged their customers for all the necessary steps to get the natural gas from the gas well to the customer’s home or business. This included purchasing the natural gas, delivering it to the customer, measuring the customer’s use, providing emergency service, and billing the customer.

Until now, only large, interruptible customers could purchase natural gas as a commodity. Today, customers in the states of Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Maryland, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia have customer choice in purchasing natural gas.  This ability to choose is called unbundling. The customer can now purchase the natural gas separately from the utility that still provides transportation of the commodity.
