Vectren Energy Delivery of Ohio Apples to Apples Chart

Vectren Energy Delivery of Ohio Apples to Apples Chart

Publication Date: May 16, 2012

The PUCO produces the Apples to Apples charts to provide consumers with a snapshot comparison of current natural gas supplier price options and contract terms for individual customers. You may also want to check with your local government to see if your community has grouped together citizens into a buying pool to purchase gas. The PUCO updates the charts on a weekly basis and verifies each supplier offer to ensure accuracy. As with all contracts, consumers should carefully read and understand all terms and conditions before signing any forms or agreeing to enroll with a supplier for natural gas service. For a description of Apples to Apples chart-related terms, please refer to Chart Definitions.

The PUCO provides the tools you need to calculate your estimated cost. The Self-Calculation Worksheet that is available on the PDF version of the Apples to Apples charts, walks you through the steps needed to manually calculate your own estimated cost. Or, you can access the Apples to Apples Interactive Calculator and automatically calculate your estimated costs.

The Supplier Total Rate, which is the price to compare, includes the Supplier Base Rate and the utility's current transportation charge, however, excludes the applicable state and county sales tax that should be considered if comparing Supplier Total Rates to the regulated utility's total rate (includes gas cost, transportation charge and gross receipts tax), currently at $0.39655/Ccf.
