    Howland Township has partnered with Eastern Power & Gas (Eastern PNG) to provide a natural gas aggregation program for our residents and small businesses. This program is designed to offer competitive natural gas supply rates. These FAQs answer common questions about the program.

    FAQs

    What is the natural gas aggregation program?

    Howland Township’s natural gas aggregation program allows the Township to negotiate for natural gas supply on behalf of eligible residents and small businesses. By grouping together (aggregating) the energy needs of many customers, the Township can often secure a more competitive rate than individual customers might find on their own. Eastern Power & Gas is the current supplier for the program.

    How does community choice aggregation work?

    Local governments work with a state-certified aggregator, like Eastern Power & Gas, to request proposals from competitive natural gas suppliers. Once a supplier is chosen, an opt-out letter is sent to eligible residents and businesses. Those who don’t opt-out are automatically enrolled.

    Will I receive two bills?

    No, you will continue to receive a single bill from Enbridge Gas Ohio. The supply charges from Eastern Power & Gas will be listed on that bill.

    How do I enroll?

    Enrollment is free and eligible residential and small business customers will be automatically enrolled.

    Who is eligible for the aggregation program?

    Most residential and small business customers residing in the community receiving natural gas from Dominion are eligible.

    Who is not eligible for the aggregation program?

    Residential and business customers who are not eligible for automatic enrollment in the program include:

    • A customer that is not located within community boundaries.
    • Percentage of Income Payment Program (PIPP) customers.
    • A customer who is under contract with another natural gas provider.
    • A customer who has a special contract with the natural gas utility company.
    • Customers who are behind on their payments to the utility.
    • A mercantile customer that has not provided consent to join the program. “Mercantile customer” means a commercial or industrial customer if the natural gas consumed is for non-residential use and the customer consumes more than 500 Mcf per year or is part of a national account involving multiple facilities in one or more states.
    When will I see my new rate?

    You can expect to see the new rate one to two billing cycles following your enrollment in the program. Please note supply rates do not include taxes, delivery service charges or other utility fees.

    What if I'm tax exempt?

    Tax exempt customers should send their most recent tax exempt certificate to info@easternpng.com with their full name and account number to avoid sales tax charges.

    Can I still have my payment automatically deducted from my checking account as I do now?

    Yes, how you pay your natural gas bill will not change.

    Who do I call if I have a problem with my natural gas service?

    To report service problems, a gas leak, and for billing questions, contact your local utility company. They can be contacted directly at 800-362-7557.

    What if I have already selected another supplier?

    Based on the records provided by the utility, we assumed you are not with another supplier and are eligible for the program. However, if you recently signed up with a new supplier and would like to remain with them, please let us know.

    Is there an early termination fee for leaving the program outside of the 21-day opt-out period?

    No, there is no early termination fee.
