NiSource Columbia Gas Targets Mid-Size Firms With Tailored Plans

NiSource's Columbia Gas package offers mid-sized commercial clients firm natural gas delivery, digital monitoring, and predictable billing.

The package bundles firm natural gas delivery with usage-based billing, which means you're not locked into flat charges when your consumption dips.

The digital monitoring tools are the real kicker here.

Pair that with dedicated safety support and you've got a package that goes beyond just keeping the gas on.
