Natural Gas Plans – Heat Your Home Less

Since natural gas is traded every day in competitive price markets, the price of energy is always changing. Utility companies typically set their energy supply price to compare (PTC) rate quarterly or twice per year. At Shipley Energy, we update our natural gas price offers every month, which gives us the flexibility to take advantage of favorable price conditions in the market. Our team of energy experts seeks to obtain the most competitive energy pricing available so we can pass the benefits on to you.

Please keep an eye out for these renewal notifications and feel free to call our dedicated customer care team at (855) 279-5484 with any questions.

Natural gas is naturally odorless and colorless. To make natural gas detectable, a chemical known as Mercaptan is added. Mercaptan has a smell similar to rotten eggs. If your nose detects this unique odor, leave the building immediately. Take everyone with you (including pets) and leave the exit door open if possible. Contact your utility company immediately.
