Even in tracking down a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.georgiagassavings.com\/natural-gas-rates\">bargain gas rate<\/a>, you&#8217;re under all that pressure to navigate seasonal rate changes, price spikes, and finesse your energy strategy. Maybe it\u2019s all beginning to feel a bit, well\u2026 volatile. But won&#8217;t taking a break lose you savings?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Well, planning around seasonal trends can win you some great deals, it&#8217;s true. But we know some <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.georgiagassavings.com\/resources\/understanding-your-natural-gas-bill\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Atlanta Gas Light (AGL)<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> customers just want to ease off a little! And the good news is, not all providers\u2019 rates fluctuate the same over the year. This means, in some cases, shopping now or shopping later might not have you spending as much as you think.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We\u2019ve dug through data for four of our top providers to see which ones require less seasonal planning. Let\u2019s take a look.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Compare Savannah Gas Company Prices Over Time<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fixed rates from <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.georgiagassavings.com\/companies\/georgia-natural-gas\"><b>Georgia Natural Gas\u00ae<\/b><\/a><b>\u00a0<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">have varied pretty widely over the past year, straying between 40 and 60 cents per therm depending on the season. So, whilst they offer great rates at times, locking them in will require planning ahead. Bear in mind, too, that since December all their available rates have been steadily approaching the 60 cent mark.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Until June, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.georgiagassavings.com\/companies\/constellation\"><b>Constellation\u2019s<\/b><\/a> rates were looking pretty stable between 40 and 50 cents, with just a little variation. Since then, however they&#8217;ve also hiked up towards the 60 cent mark.<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> So whilst they might prove a little less volatile than\u00a0<strong>Gas South<\/strong>, they&#8217;re also firmly (and quite sharply) rising.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.georgiagassavings.com\/companies\/gas-south\"><b>Gas South<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2019s<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0short term rates are a similar story: slight seasonal variation within a narrow 50-60 cents per therm window, with a Summer hike that&#8217;s pushed some rates above 60 cents per therm.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, rates become more stable for the longer term plans!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Data for <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.georgiagassavings.com\/companies\/xoom-energy\"><b>XOOM<\/b><\/a><b>,<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> available from the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/psc.ga.gov\/utilities\/natural-gas\/marketers-pricing-index\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Georgia Public Service Comission<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (GA PSC), shows seasons of relatively stable rates, punctuated with a couple of significant hikes around April and December. What\u2019s notably stable too, however, is their inclusion in GA PSC\u2019s reports. These reports only list the cheapest typical bills delivered for each month from all available providers. So even if their rates vary a little, <\/span><b>XOOM&#8217;s\u00a0<\/b>rates at least appear to be stably cheap.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What this GA PSC data shows, too, is the potential volatility of a variable rate plan. See, for example, the difference between just October and December 2020. The estimated monthly bill from <\/span><b>XOOM\u2019s <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">variable rate jumped from around $60 to around $140!<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Shop Stable Savannah Gas Prices<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So if you don\u2019t want to switch just yet, don\u2019t worry!

But some providers &#8211; like <\/span><b>XOOM <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and <\/span><b>Gas South <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; can offer more stable gas prices year round.
