Choice Gas Program: How Does Natural Gas get to my House or Business?
3 Main Players in Natural Gas
1. Oil Companies: Large oil companies drill, refine, and store the natural gas.
2. Pipeline Companies: Pipeline companies ship gas all over the country from the refineries to the public utilities. They use what is often referred to as “interstate pipelines”. here for a map of the natural gas pipeline network.
3. Public Utility: A Public Utility procures natural gas from wholesale gas suppliers, transports that gas through interstate natural gas pipelines, and then distributes that gas through its natural gas distribution system from the edge of your town to your home.
They own and are responsible for maintaining the local distribution natural gas pipes and all gas meters. A Public Utility is governed by a public utility commission. It can make a reasonable profit from the investment made in the gas distribution system, natural gas transportation service, and continued operation and maintenance of the gas distribution pipelines and meters within your town.
A Public Utility is not permitted to make a profit on the purchase and delivery of the natural gas supply, as those actual costs are passed on directly to you.
How does WoodRiver Energy come into play?
Here’s how it works:
We buy your natural gas directly from the competitive market. We have a lower overhead compared to a utility; therefore, we can afford to be competitive with our pricing and we are able to get better rates on your gas. Your gas is then put through the interstate pipelines to your local public utility. The utility then delivers it to your residence or facility without any disruption over their pipelines and meters.
The 2024 Wyoming and Nebraska Choice gas selection period is April 4 – 24.
