Natural gas is America's natural wonder. That's why natural gas use has increased by 35 percent over the last decade, and is projected to grow by 45 percent by 2015. Natural gas costs less to use in your home than electricity, heating oil, propane or kerosene. On average, electricity costs almost four times more than natural gas.
Natural gas is the cleanest and most efficient fossil fuel.
99 percent of the natural gas we use in the United States comes from North America, and supplies are abundant. The 2 million-mile underground natural gas delivery system has an outstanding safety record. Regardless of the weather, you can depend on your natural gas utility to bring you America's best energy value. Most electricity in the United States comes from coal, which produces far more emissions than natural gas. Natural gas utilities are important to the nation and its economy.
