Core Gas Aggregation Service

Buy gas for your home or business from third-party gas suppliers 

Core Gas Aggregation Service (CGAS) is an optional service. CGAS allows customers to buy gas for their home or business directly from third-party gas suppliers. These alternate gas providers are Core Transport Agents (CTAs). 

 

Customers aren't required to sign up with a CTA. They can continue to receive natural gas from PG&E. It’s the customer's choice.

 

How does Core Gas Aggregation Service work?

Before joining Core Gas Aggregation Service, an end-use customer, such as a resident or business owner, will need to agree through verbal or written contract to buy natural gas from CTA other than PG&E.

 

The CTA will procure natural gas for its customers, but PG&E continues to transport the natural gas to the end-use customer. Customers are required to make a minimum 12-month commitment to Core Gas Aggregation Service and purchase natural gas from a CTA, instead of PG&E. And CTAs are required to serve a gas-usage pool with a combined usage of at least 120,000 therms per year.
