The rate held from one month to the next five times: May to June 2023, August to September 2023, April to May 2024, January to February 2025, and May to June 2025.

Each period in this record is one calendar month, and PUCO says the SCO changes monthly (how SCO rates are set).

Where do the numbers for CenterPoint Energy Ohio gas come from?

Each rate was read from PUCO's CenterPoint Energy Ohio historical chart. The newest period, October 1 – October 31, 2026, came from PUCO's Energy Choice Ohio chart. We entered each figure by hand, checked it against a second read of the page, and last read the charts on October 1, 2026.

Rates are in dollars per Ccf, which is one hundred cubic feet of gas (Ohio Administrative Code 4901:1-29-01). Enbridge Gas Ohio's chart uses the Mcf, one thousand cubic feet. PUCO's tables print two to four decimal places, and we show at least three, so a trailing zero may be ours. We keep the original cell text in our data.

Why does the CenterPoint Energy Ohio gas history list months, not dates?

PUCO's chart names only a calendar month for each rate, with no start or end date. We show each rate as covering that whole month. PUCO does not state the day each rate took effect, so we do not either.

We found no gaps, overlaps or unusable dates in the periods PUCO prints for CenterPoint Energy Ohio gas.

How does the history of CenterPoint Energy Ohio gas rates help when you compare offers?

This record shows how far and how often the default has moved. It does not give the next rate. The newest period, October 1 – October 31, 2026, is the one in force today.

Today's default and its next change are on our CenterPoint Energy Ohio gas SCO page. PUCO's historical chart says historic rates "are not indicative of future market conditions or prices."

The CenterPoint Energy Ohio gas Apples to Apples chart lists current offers, and energy choice in Ohio explains switching. Staying on the default can be the better choice when every fixed offer is above it, when fees erase the gap, or when you may move before a fixed term ends and would owe an early termination fee.

We are a broker. Suppliers pay us a commission when a household enrolls, and we also charge a service fee. There's no cost to check, and you see the fee terms in your offer.

Frequently asked questions

How many rate periods does this history hold for CenterPoint Energy Ohio gas?

The record holds 58 monthly periods, from January 2022 through October 2026. The count grows when we add a row after PUCO publishes a new period. The table on this page lists every period, newest first, with a link to the PUCO page it came from.

What were the highest and lowest CenterPoint Energy Ohio gas rates in this record?

The highest rate in this record was $1.110 per Ccf (September 2022). The lowest was $0.270 per Ccf (March 2024). These are the extremes of the 58 periods we hold, not of every rate PUCO has ever published. Compare a past rate with a current one only when the unit is the same.

Does the history for CenterPoint Energy Ohio gas predict the next rate?

No. PUCO's own chart says historic rates are not indicative of future market conditions or prices. A record of past periods shows how the default has moved. It does not forecast the next period, and it is not an offer. Check PUCO's chart for the rate in force before you compare.

Does the record for CenterPoint Energy Ohio gas include PUCO's periods before January 2022?

No. We enter periods from January 2022 onward. PUCO's chart also lists earlier periods that we have not entered, so the record is a recent span, not the full list. Within the span, a missing month means PUCO's table has no row, and we never fill one with an estimate.

How can I check a figure for CenterPoint Energy Ohio gas against PUCO's chart?

Find the row by its month in PUCO's chart. PUCO prints gas rates in dollars per Ccf, the unit shown here. We show at least three decimal places, so a trailing zero may be ours. The original cell text is kept in our data.
