Cost of gas
The only item to compare
When considering a gas marketer's offer, the only item on your Terasen Gas bill to compare to their rate is the cost of gas per gigajoule (GJ). The other rates will not change.
Effective October 1, 2008, Terasen Gas customers pay $7.536 per GJ for the gas they use. Terasen Gas does not earn a profit on the price of the commodity. We buy gas on behalf of our customers at the best possible price and pass that price on without markup. These rates are reviewed with the BCUC quarterly and may be adjusted to allow us to recover the actual cost of the gas.
The cost of gas offered to you by the gas marketer is a fixed rate. While their rate will differ from the Terasen Gas rate, it will remain the same for the duration of your contract.
