Indiana Energy Procurement, Simplified.

Indiana businesses can choose their natural gas supplier through utility-run Choice programs, with NIPSCO's program formally authorized by the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission in 1997. Blue Copper Partners helps businesses compare available supply options and make procurement decisions based on actual usage and contract timing.

Natural Gas

COMPETITIVE GAS SUPPLY SINCE 1997.

NIPSCO's natural gas Choice program was authorized by the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission in 1997, letting business customers choose an alternative gas supplier instead of the utility's regulated rate. Other Indiana utilities offer similar alternative supply arrangements. Your utility continues to deliver the gas regardless of which supplier you choose.

  • Competitive gas supply available to eligible commercial customers

  • NIPSCO territory, with alternative arrangements available through other Indiana utilities

  • Your utility continues to deliver natural gas regardless of supplier choice

  • See how to compare commercial natural gas rates for what to look at before switching
