PSC Reminds Consumers of Choice Gas Program Selection Period

Lincoln, March 10, 2020 – Selection time has arrived for consumers
served by Black Hills Gas Distribution (formerly SourceGas and
Kinder Morgan) Choice Gas Program. The selection period for
residential/commercial customers in the Black Hills Gas distribution
area runs from April 10-through-April 23.

The Choice Gas Program, administered by Black Hills Energy allows
residential, commercial, and ag customers residing in the area of the
state served by Black Hills Gas Distribution to choose a third party
supplier to provide their natural gas.

“Participation in the Choice Gas Program really depends on where
you live in the state,” said Nichole Mulcahy, Director PSC Natural
Gas Department. “Consumers in the areas served by the program,
should be receiving information from providers to help them make an
informed choice on which company they would like to be their supplier.”

Consumers unsure if they are in an area served by the Choice Gas
Program, are encouraged to contact Black Hills Energy at
1-877-245-3506

Mulcahy said, “We urge all customers eligible for the program to
make a selection. Customers who take the time to make a choice
could see a benefit by receiving a lower price for their natural gas.
Customers who don’t choose, are assigned a default supplier and
rate, which may result in the customer paying more.”

The PSC would like to know what you think. If you are a choice gas
customer, take our survey @ http://tiny.cc/ChoiceGasConsumerSurvey
