Gas prices across the United States have decreased since
last month and natural gas bills for PG&E residential customers are forecast to be 7 percent lower
this January, compared to January 2007, with total average gas bills expected
to be $97.64 for the month. The price decrease is driven by lower
natural gas costs and a projected drop in the amount of gas being used by
customers. Even though bills are expected to be lower than last year, cold January
temperatures typically result in very high natural gas usage, meaning energy
efficiency and conservation are still important. Turning down your thermostat
by just one or two degrees and installing weather stripping are two easy ways
to save on your winter heating bills. PG&E offers several options to manage
your winter energy costs including rebates on efficient equipment and a 10/20
Plus Winter Gas Savings program. More information is available at www.pge.com/winter. A forecast of PG&E natural gas rates
and bills over the next year is also available at www.pge.com/tariffs.
