Natural Gas and Electricity Supply

We run competitive solicitations for natural gas and electricity supply for the benefit of our program participants.

Energy purchasing can be complex and confusing for public agencies. SPURR partners with your organization to explore and explain energy markets, risk management options, contractual terms, and supplier quality. Leverage SPURR’s aggregated buying power, our decades of experience and technical expertise, and the transparency of our process to receive the best rates, market-based pricing and terms guaranteed, and enhanced ROI from your clean energy initiatives – all with no hidden risks or fees.

Available Energy Programs

Natural Gas Programs

Noncore Natural Gas, Anywhere in California

Our “Noncore” (large usage) class accounts program offers a variety of rate plans, including variable, fixed, and portfolio pricing. SPURR selected a retail supplier that offers state-of-the-art risk management options.

Core Natural Gas, on PG&E Distribution System

Are you tired of natural gas “cold callers” promising you the moon and stars? We have a solution that meets your needs. Our program for “Core” (small usage) class accounts connects you with our RFQP-winning retail supplier, whose unmatched transparency and integrity simplify your experience.

Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS) Credits, for Compressed Natural Gas Stations anywhere in California

Our LCFS program allows SPURR’s experts to drive the process of turning your potential renewable credits into cash. CNG station owners can buy physical natural gas from the commodity supplier of their choice and still participate in our program. You assign the “Environmental Attributes” of your CNG station to us, and we – through our monetization partner – match your usage via “book and claim” with RNG producers. We then create your credits, turn those credits into money, and send you a check. 

Electricity Program

Electricity Customer Choice, on PG&E, SCE, or SDG&E Distribution Systems

In our Direct Access program for Electricity Customer Choice, we help find the right supplier and the right rate plans for eligible customers. Our team has decades of experience and we offer transparent services with no hidden risks or fees.  Our consultative approach allows you to co-steer the process of selecting a provider while minimizing risk by leveraging our expertise.

Who May Participate

Participation in SPURR’s Natural Gas and Electricity programs is open to public agencies and non-profit educational entities, whether or not they are members of SPURR. Non-member participation increases our buying power, for the benefit of all participants. Participation is not open to individuals or for-profit entities. 

What About Supply Reliability?

For all plans, local energy utility providers remain responsible for all natural gas and electricity delivery, pipeline, metering, and safety services. The utility providers will receive the same payments for these “transportation” services under applicable tariffs. The physical natural gas and/or electricity supplied remains the same and program participants remain eligible for CPUC-funded energy efficiency programs.
