No locked plan beats NIPSCO's standard price today.
How Judy picks these plans
Plans that lock your price for 6 months or more, for a home that uses 800 therms a year. Fees are included. Cheapest first, one plan per company. Only plans that cost less than the standard price are shown. The standard gas price changes every month, so the savings are only a rough guide.
Each plan's price adds the supplier's charge for moving and storing gas, and the extra amount NIPSCO charges in your first 12 months with a supplier. So it may be higher than the price on NIPSCO's list.
Prices come from the NIPSCO CHOICE price list (nipsco.com). We check it every 2 hours. Judy looks at more than price: she checks your own bill, fees and where prices are going.
