How Michigan Deregulated Natural Gas Works for Business

Michigan restructured its natural gas market in 1999. DTE Energy, Consumers Energy, and other gas utilities still deliver gas and maintain pipelines. The supply portion of your commercial gas bill is open to competition from licensed third-party suppliers.

We start with a signed Letter of Authorization to pull your historical usage, audit your current gas bill, and request bids from 30+ licensed suppliers. You receive fixed-rate offers at 12, 24, 36, 48, or 60 months, normalized for all transportation and storage pass-throughs. The supplier handles the switch with your utility, and the new rate appears on your next bill.
