What Consumers Energy does for you
For just a few dollars a day, electricity lights your way and powers your day, while natural gas helps warm your nights and cook your meals.
In 2008, the typical Consumers Energy residential customer paid about $2.40 per day for electricity. That’s about the same as a cup of premium coffee. Meanwhile, Consumers Energy natural gas customers paid 24 percent less than the national average for their natural gas and delivery.
