Spire MoGas fuel retention adjustment
Spire MoGas Pipeline LLC filed an annual Fuel and Gas Loss Retention Percentage Adjustment to be effective October 1, 2026. That adjustment filing could change the percentage of fuel or lost gas the pipeline retains and therefore alter charges passed to customers served under the pipeline's tariff.
