NIPSCo seeks lower gas rates; says heating costs stabilizing

HAMMOND — Northern Indiana Public Service Company August 17 filed a notification of decreased gas costs with the Public Service Commission of Indiana totaling $8,489,610. which it proposes to pass on to its customers. The gas cost reduction is the result of reduced rates filed by four of NIPSCo’s five pipeline suppliers with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. NIPSCo said it expects gas rates this winter to be lower or about equal to those charged this spring, due primarily to lower wholesale gas prices charged by suppliers, keeping the company’s gas rates among the lowest in the US. The utility said about 80 cents out of every dollar it receives from its customers goes to pay for purchased natural gas. Upon approval by the commission, the new rates will lower the bill for the average NIPSCo residential customer using natural gas for homeheating and

and storage adjustment factor was reduced to 5.95 cents per therm from 6.35 cents per therm, the utility said. NIPSCo has now filed five consecutive reduced gas rate filings since April totaling $114,536,486, on an annual basis resulting from lowered gas costs and supplier refunds.
