You’ll be paying more to stay warm this winter. Austin Utilities is preparing for natural gas prices that may be 30-35% higher this winter, and that means as we head into the winter retail prices for energy are at or near multiyear highs with households spending more on energy this winter compared with the past several winters because of these higher energy prices. The high prices follow changes to natural gas energy supply and demand patterns, officials said. AU is offering resources to customers who may have difficulties paying their winter heating bills. You can contact Austin Utilities for more information.
