Natural gas has helped shaped the future of American energy. The United States is the number one natural gas producer in the world. The industry employs more than 2 million Americans, and by 2035, the natural gas industry will create more than 3.5 million good-paying jobs, supporting our economy and driving growth.

Newer natural gas appliances can help you save money on your monthly energy bills, and gas appliances are often more affordable than comparable fuel sources. For instance, the combination of a new high-efficiency natural gas furnace and water heater can save you up to $2,000 a year in operating costs.

Ninety one percent of natural gas makes it directly to your home. In comparison, by the time electricity is generated and transported to you, only 36% of energy makes it to your home.

When you turn on the shower, the water is hot. When you fire up the stove, you cook the perfect meal every time. That’s because natural gas appliances get the job done quickly and use less energy than other fuel sources. 

Natural gas pipelines are underground, meaning they offer reliable energy when you need it. In fact, most natural gas water heaters and stoves work even when the power is out. And, you never have to worry about running out or refilling a tank.

Natural gas is energy you can feel good about. As the cleanest conventional fuel, natural gas uses less energy to get the job done. And while the number of gas customers has grown over the past decades, gas consumption has actually decreased thanks to efficient appliances.
