On Jan. 30, 2025, Peoples Gas filed a formal notification with the Florida Public Service Commission (PSC) that we will be seeking a base rate adjustment, which would take effect in 2026. Base rates will not increase this year. Learn more about rates and charges for residential and business customers.

As Florida grows, Peoples Gas must continue to make investments in our team, our tools, and the maintenance and expansion of our system to serve customers and communities across the state. 

The decision to raise rates is not an easy one for us. There is never a good time for it, and we know increased prices are affecting everyone. We take the responsibility to deliver safe, dependable and affordable energy to our customers seriously, and that includes managing our business carefully while meeting their evolving expectations.

Since January 2023, the last time Peoples Gas requested to raise base rates, the company has:

  • Added approximately 37,000 (8.5 percent increase) and approximately 1,500 (3.7 percent increase) new residential and commercial customers, respectively
  • Added approximately 1,260 miles of main and service lines to serve demand
  • Invested in the safety of the public, our system and our people by striving to manage damages caused by construction activity around the state.
  • Helped residential and commercial customers save more than 4 million therms of natural gas through conservation programs.
  • Connected more than 17,000 residential customers to ways to save energy through our free online energy audit
  • Launched a new on-site energy audit for commercial customers. More than 160 businesses participated in this free program
  • Continued to be among the leading utilities in the nation for customer satisfaction and brand trust
