Intelligent Energy to give away natural gas

New Jersey — Thousands of New York and New Jersey residents may not believe their eyes when they receive a postcard offering them two months of natural gas for their homes at a decidedly unnatural price: $0. The unusual offer comes from Intelligent Energy, a natural gas re-seller. “Many New York and New Jersey residents are still not aware that, thanks to deregulation, they have a choice for purchasing natural gas for their home,” said Darin Cook, president. “In order to get that message out, we had to come up with an offer that would open some eyes.” The two-month offer, available only to residential customers, involves no long-term commitments. At the end of the two-month trial period, the customer can, if they choose, remain with Intelligent Energy at their regular monthly deregulated rate, get price security by locking in a fixed rate or return to purchasing gas from their utility with no penalty. The offer is valid to residential natural gas customers of Central Hudson Gas and Electric, Con Edison, Elizabethtown Gas, KeySpan Energy Delivery, National Fuel Gas, Nationalgrid, New Jersey Natural Gas, Orange and Rockland, Public Service Electric and Gas and South Jersey Gas. Residential customers who are interested in the free gas offer can call 1-877-IVE GOT GAS (1-877-483-4684), or log on to www.intelligentenergy.org/freegas.
