Natural Gas Industry

Learn about gas companies, rates, competitive supply, and annual financial returns.

We regulate natural gas companies so that customers can get reliable, low-cost service. Here, you’ll find information on Massachusetts gas companies, gas adjustment factor (GAF) rates, and gas competitive supply. (Competitive supply gives Massachusetts gas customers the option of choosing a natural gas supplier other than their gas company. You can learn more about it below.)
