The Purchased Energy Cost reflected on bills issued after Feb. 10 is $0.70.
This Purchased Gas Cost Adjustment mechanism shall apply to all Jo-Carroll Energy rate schedules for natural gas service.
The Purchased Natural Gas Adjustment (PGA) is the amount on the natural gas bill that goes up or down depending on the true cost of the purchased natural gas each month. The PGA amount is expressed in a dollars per therm format. This amount appears on the bill on the same line as the use data. The PGA amount is determined by analyzing the cost of natural gas purchased directly from the pipeline, taken out of storage and related costs of purchasing and transporting the natural gas to the distribution system. A comparison between the total costs of purchased natural gas and the amount collected each month from the end users is analyzed to determine if an over or under collection has occurred. Any over or under collection amount is part of the calculation to determine the monthly PGA.
