Nicor Enerchange Hub Administration

Is your company looking for ways to obtain more revenue from your gas transportation or storage facilities? – Let Nicor Enerchange show you how hub services can add value to your bottom line!

Nicor Gas has ample gas transportation and storage facilities to meet the needs of its firm customers.  To the extent that the utility has more capacity than its firm customers are using at any point in time, it can offer capacity to wholesale gas shippers, typically on an interruptible basis.  Nicor Enerchange's Hub Administration group has operated the Chicago HubSM, marketing and administering underutilized storage and transportation capacity on behalf of Nicor Gas since 1998.  The optimization services provided by Nicor Enerchange bring many benefits to the utility including revenue from hub services, more liquidity at the City Gate, improved pipeline input flexibility and better physical flexibility through shaping of services.
