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

Each rate was read from PUCO's Duke Energy natural gas historical chart. The newest two periods 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.

What changed on April 1, 2026 in the Duke Energy Ohio gas history?

PUCO's Duke Energy Ohio gas chart says: "Beginning April 1, 2026, Duke Energy Ohio will use a standard service offer (SSO) rate in place of the Gas Cost Recovery (GCR) it used previously." Our table runs the two in one series, and the first SSO period is April 1 – April 30, 2026, right after the last GCR period, March 2 – March 31, 2026.

PUCO's printed dates leave 1 day between May 1 – May 30, 2023 and June 1 – July 31, 2023. We leave this gap as PUCO prints it.

The Duke 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.
