Maryland Commercial Natural Gas

Maryland businesses in Washington Gas (WGL) and BGE territories can choose their natural gas supplier. The state sits in a unique position between the Marcellus Shale supply and the high-demand Atlantic coast.

Price volatility here is often driven by the Tetco M3 index. A strategic fixed-rate gas contract can protect against winter basis blowouts common in the Mid-Atlantic.
