Frequently Asked Questions
When did natural gas deregulation occur?
Large usage customers have had a choice of suppliers since 1987. For smaller users, competition was introduced in 1998. Prior to this, customers did not have a choice of who to purchase their natural gas from.
Are any physical changes required before I can purchase natural gas from Connect Energy?
No, SaskEnergy will continue to be responsible for the delivery of natural gas to your meter, but you have a choice of who supplies the natural gas to SaskEnergy’s distribution system. You will continue to receive your natural gas bill from SaskEnergy and any Pre-authorized or Equalized Payment Plans will be maintained. Connect Energy will be listed as the natural gas supplier.
Who do I call if I experience a gas leak or disruption of service?
SaskEnergy will continue to be responsible for repairs and maintenance. The costs of these services are included in the rates charged by the utility for distributing the gas.
