Cheaper natural gas shoulder month rates are coming to a close. And <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.georgiagassavings.com\/blog\/2020\/03\/19\/cant-pay-natural-gas-bill-in-ga-during-coronavirus\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Covid<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> complications mean Metro Atlanta residents are finding long-term planning harder than ever.\u00a0 But don\u2019t be daunted &#8211; we\u2019ve run the figures. Let\u2019s take a look at the best short term natural gas plans to save money for you and your family this winter.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>How Do I Look After My Bills<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep an eye on the price per therm. As soon as the shoulder months end, prices will likely rise. We expect natural gas prices in Georgia to continue to rise in December and January. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.climate.gov\/enso\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This year&#8217;s predicted La Ni\u00f1a <\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">may well drive up demand and increase energy prices further.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.georgiagassavings.com\/plans\/georgia-natural-gas\/details\/winter-guaranteed-bill\"><b>Georgia Natural Gas\u00ae Winter Guaranteed Bill<\/b><\/a> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">plan will secure you current prices with a flat monthly bill.

But, you\u2019ll be protected from cold snap price hikes, and you\u2019ll know in advance your expenditure every month &#8211; you\u2019ll be paying for the added convenience. Plus, you\u2019ll be switching your plan again in 6 months when we\u2019re back into cheaper spring shoulder months.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Energy Price Comparison for 6 Month Plans<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fixed rate plans will also protect you from fluctuating market prices, although your monthly bill will depend on your usage. Taking the <strong>Georgia Public Service Commission <\/strong>\u00a0average estimated annual usage of 717 therms (717 over 12 months = 60 therms per month), we ran the figures on these 6-month fixed rate natural gas plans to show an estimated monthly gas supply cost.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Shop for Best Natural Gas Suppliers<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.georgiagassavings.com\/plans\/constellation\/details\/6-month-home-natural-gas-plan\"><b>Constellation 6 month Home Natural Gas Plan<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> works out as the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.georgiagassavings.com\/natural-gas-rates\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">cheapest natural gas plan <\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">for Metro Atlanta residents, at around $33\/month:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">$0.419 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">per therm<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> x 60 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">therms used<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> = $25.14 per month, + $7.95 recurring charge = $33.09\/month <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">for gas supply.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, its $150 early termination charge might prove too restrictive.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.georgiagassavings.com\/natural-gas-rates\/georgia\/atlanta\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Metro Atlanta 6-month fixed plans<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> have early termination charges, bar one: the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.georgiagassavings.com\/plans\/georgia-natural-gas\/details\/6-month-fixed-plan\"><b>Georgia Natural Gas\u00ae 6-Month Fixed Plan<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.
