New Jersey Posts August Gas Migration Data
September 29, 2011
Email This Story
The New Jersey BPU has posted natural gas migration statistics for the month of August 2011.
The BPU's August stats, including accounts and load migrated, may be found here (the link is active as of this story's writing, but Matters notes the link uses 07 rather than 08 for the .pdf filename, and it may later be changed).
Additionally, the data for PSE&G appears to be incorrect on the BPU's chart, and transposed from PSE&G's electric migration report (the migration totals are identical to those in the electric report)
A comparison by Matters of accounts migrated in August 2011 versus July 2011 can be found here (second tab). Matters' chart reproduces the PSE&G data as reported by the BPU, but notes that it is likely inaccurate, and accordingly does not compute a migration growth rate based on the data.
At New Jersey Natural Gas, the net growth in residential migration from July to August was 495 accounts, about half of the growth from June to July and on par with the growth from May to June.
Both South Jersey Gas and Elizabethtown Gas saw marginal net decreases in residential migration from July to August.
While Elizabethtown Gas also saw a decrease in residential accounts eligible for choice during this time, the loss of 270 migrated residential accounts at South Jersey Gas during August resulted despite the number of residential accounts eligible for choice increasing by 47.
As a percentage of total residential accounts, migration for the month of August 2011 was as follows:
Elizabethtown Gas: 0.98%
New Jersey Natural Gas: 6.82%
PSE&G: N/A
South Jersey Gas: 10.84%
