This adjustment is necessary to recover the investments made to maintain a safe, reliable and environmentally responsible natural gas distribution system across Kansas. 
 
Kansas Gas Service pays for investments in its pipeline system up front. To continue to invest in the system, the company must recover a portion of these costs and earn a fair return on that investment.
 
We understand the increased financial pressures everyone is facing today. Our employees work hard to manage our expenses to help keep energy costs at reasonable rates.

New rates will go into effect on Nov. 1, 2024. Below, you’ll find the new service and delivery charges, including the approved rate increases. It also outlines the monthly increase you’ll see on your bills.

Customer Type	Service Charge	Delivery Charge (per Mcf)	Monthly Increase (approximate)
Residential	$21.75	$2.9769	$3.83
Small Commercial	$32.20	$2.8704	$4.69
Large Commercial	$54.00	$2.1369	$18.52
Transport-Eligible	$59.00	$1.8549	$163.39

 

These changes will appear on customer bills in addition to the standard line items including the cost of natural gas, taxes and other miscellaneous charges. As a reminder, Kansas Gas Service does not set or markup the cost of gas - the amount we pay is what customers pay.

 

Customers have several options and resources to help with their natural gas bills. Various financial assistance agencies manage funds for eligible customers facing financial hardship. For payment resources and information on these agencies, visit kansasgasservice.com/cares.
