Public Service Electric and Gas (PSE&G) announced that it is extending bill credits through February and March for its residential gas heating customers -- cutting the average bill for the typical residential gas customer by about 31 percent.

The bill credits for the additional two months are an extension of the bill credits PSE&G provided for gas usage in November, December and January.

With these credits, a typical residential PSE&G customer using 751 therms from Nov. 1, 2014 through Mar. 31, 2015, would see a total credit of $210 for a savings of about 31 percent on their gas bill. In addition to these bill credit savings, on Oct. 1, 2014 the utility lowered the supply cost per therm to 45 cents from 54 cents per therm – its lowest rate in 14 years.

"The continued availability of low-cost shale gas has made heating our homes this winter especially affordable," said Jorge Cardenas, PSE&G vice president of asset management and centralized services. "In addition, our transportation and storage capabilities and the way we manage our pipeline contracts have enabled us once again to reduce costs for our customers."
