Description

The City of Philadelphia is seeking proposals to develop a business diversification study for its municipally owned gas utility, Philadelphia Gas Works (PGW). PGW has been experiencing a decrease in customers and usage for decades due to appliance efficiencies and conservation efforts, and warming weather patterns have also contributed to demand reductions. These issues will only intensfiy as temperatures are projected to continue to rise in the future and new policies may restrict the production of greenhouse gases. As a gas-only utility, PGW, and the City as its owner, need to understand how the utility can provide necessary services in a lower-carbon future while simultaenously thriving financially and retaining its 1,600-person workforce.
