“Despite the increase, residential customers will see average annual bills that are 8 percent lower than in 2008,” said Bill Cantrell, president and CEO of SourceGas. “We strongly believe that natural gas is the fuel of choice for our Colorado customers. It is clean, abundant, domestically produced and it offers good value to our customers.”
