This month's energy tip: Proper landscaping can modify the climate
around your home and reduce both heat gain in summer and heat loss in
winter. Plant evergreens or shrubs on the northwest side of your home,
and plant deciduous trees (those that lose leaves in the winter) on the
southwest side to save energy all year round.
Natural gas marketers quote only the gas rates, but your bill includes
customer service fees and other charges that add up. Be sure to compare
rates on an "Apples-to-Apples" basis, which includes everything on your
bill except taxes. Here are the "Apples-to-Apples" per-therm rates
offered by Georgia marketers this month:
1) blackEnergy ( www.blackenergy.com ): $2.43 Variable or $2.07 Fixed
2) Commerce Energy (877-226-5389): $2.20 Variable
3) Coweta-Fayette EMC (877-RING-EMC): $2.28 Variable or $2.02 Fixed
4) GasKey (877-GAS-1KEY): $2.56 Variable
5) Georgia Natural Gas (877-850-6200): $2.53 Variable or $2.14 Fixed
6) Infinite Energy (877-DIAL-IEI): $2.53 Variable or $2.07 Fixed
7) Scana Energy (877-GO-SCANA): $2.53 Variable or $2.15 Fixed
8) Shell Energy (877-67-SHELL): $2.55 Variable or $2.10 Fixed
9) Southern Company Gas (866-SOCO-GAS): $2.52 Variable or $2.14 Fixed
10) Vectren Source (866-200-5693): $2.45 Variable
11) Walton EMC (866-WEMC-GAS): $2.38 Variable or $2.00 Fixed
Contact your chosen marketer to sign up for a monthly variable rate or
one-year fixed rate. They'll order Atlanta Gas Light to transfer your
account, and you'll be switched to your new marketer on the 1st of next
month if you call by the 19th.
