Multiple Fuel Rate Filings in March–April
Several natural gas pipelines filed fuel and quarterly fuel adjustment rate changes to take effect March 1, 2025 or April 1, 2025. These filings could change how much customers pay for pipeline fuel and related services; many have a public comment deadline of 5:00 p.m. ET on March 12, 2025.
Temporary Capacity Release Negotiated Rates
Alliance Pipeline filed a Temporary Capacity Release negotiated-rate transaction to be effective March 1, 2025. Negotiated-rate and capacity-release filings can change the prices shippers or businesses pay to reserve pipeline capacity.
Negotiated and Non‑Conforming Rate Agreements
Several pipelines (for example, El Paso and Gillis Hub) filed negotiated-rate or non-conforming rate agreement changes effective April 1, 2025. These filings can change contract prices or terms for customers under negotiated agreements.
Annual Tracker and Retention Adjustments
Filings include an Annual Electric Power Tracker (effective April 1, 2025) and annual unaccounted-for gas retention percentage adjustments; these periodic trackers and retention changes can affect cost pass-throughs to customers for pipeline operations.
