The Choice Gas program, administered by Black Hills Energy, gives customers the freedom to choose the natural gas commodity supplier and pricing option that best suits their needs.
How it works:
Each year there is a selection period in February (Agricultural) and April (Residential/Commercial), where customers are allowed to receive price quotes on a variety of natural gas commodity pricing options, from multiple participating suppliers. They have until the end of the selection period to choose their pricing option for up to two years (three years for Agricultural and Commercial customers).
A customer may make their selection with their preferred supplier, or with Black Hills Energy online at choicegas.com, by phone, or by mailing in their selection form provided in their packet.
Why make a choice?
Actively selecting a supplier and natural gas commodity price option often results in cost savings as compared to not choosing, or “defaulting.”
Choosing a natural gas commodity price option plan may protect customers from price spikes related to commodity markets, weather, or other factors.

What's the difference between a utility and a supplier?
The utility (Black Hills Energy) transports natural gas to your home or farm, sends your monthly bill and handles any service issues you may have. Your natural gas supplier is the company that provides your natural gas commodity. In Nebraska and Wyoming, you can select your supplier, pricing option and term. Regardless of which natural gas commodity supplier you select, your utility is still Black Hills Energy.
If I change my gas supplier, will my service be disrupted or does the reliability of my service change?
No. Your service will not be disrupted. The only difference that results from choosing a new natural gas commodity supplier may be the price you pay. Your supplier is listed under the Energy Supply portion of your bill.
When is the Choice Gas selection period?
This year’s selection period dates are:
Nebraska Agricultural Selection Period: 2025-26 is 2/6/2025 - 2/19/2025.
Nebraska Residential/Commercial: 2025-26 is 4/3/2025 - 4/23/2025.
Wyoming Residential/Commercial: 2025-26 is 4/3/2025 - 4/23/2025.
What exactly am I selecting?
Price You're selecting the price option for how your natural gas commodity is billed.
Supplier You're selecting the supplier that will provide you with your natural gas commodity. Each participating supplier has undergone an application process, and has proven that they are able to meet all requirements set forth in Black Hills Nebraska Gas, LLC tariff, and Black Hills Wyoming Gas, LLC tariff, as approved by the Public Service Commissions in Nebraska and Wyoming.
Term You're selecting how long you want to lock in the price you pay and the natural gas commodity supplier that will provide you with your natural gas commodity.
What information do I need before I make a selection?
Account number - this is provided by the utility and can be found on your bill and on your selection form.
Confirmation code - a confirmation code is necessary in order to make a selection. Each price quote is paired with a confirmation code and provided to you by the supplier who gave you the quote. The confirmation code ensures that you receive the correct price. Prices can change and confirmation codes are often time-sensitive. Make sure to ask how long your code will be valid, if you don’t plan on signing up right away.
Control number - this number is provided to you directly by the utility and may be found on the selection form included in your packet. It allows you to securely make your selection online or with a natural gas commodity supplier.
Where do I find my control number?
Can’t find your selection form? Click here to view the Black Hills Energy Control Number Lookup tool.
How do I select a natural gas supplier?
Online You may select your natural gas commodity supplier by visiting the Black Hills Choice Gas website at choicegas.com, or by visiting the websites for each participating supplier.
Phone Black Hills Energy’s IVR system can accommodate your choice gas selection. If you decide to use that service, you will need a confirmation code. To retrieve your confirmation code from Legacy Natural Gas via phone, please call 888-452-8231 to speak with a representative.
Mail Black Hills Energy sends a packet to your address each year. Check the Legacy Natural Gas box on the selection form you received in the mail and choose the pricing option you want by writing the corresponding confirmation code next to that option. To get your confirmation code, click here or call our toll-free number, 888.452.8231, to talk with a knowledgeable representative. Once you have made your selection, simply return your ballot in the mail prior to the selection period deadline. Be sure to sign your ballot or it will not be valid.
Supplier You can also make your selection through your chosen natural gas commodity supplier by providing them with your account number and control number. Do not provide your control number to a supplier until you are ready to choose that supplier. Upon doing so, you are authorizing that Supplier to make your Choice Gas selection on your behalf.
Why might the cost of Fixed-Price gas increase if I select a longer term?
Natural gas can be a volatile commodity with prices going up or down substantially over time. Prices may vary depending on several factors, including weather, the supply and demand for natural gas, and lack of certainty in the market. The farther out our contract goes, the less certainty there is, and that is why you may see a higher price for a three-year term, than you would on a one-year term.
What if I don't make a selection?
If you don’t submit a valid selection on or before the deadline, your account automatically rolls over to your current supplier and your pricing will be determined by your current supplier within 15 days of the end of the selection period. Default rates may be higher than a competitive rate that you receive during the selection period.
Does Choice Gas affect distribution charges?
No. Changes in distribution rates can occur from time to time and are subject to the approval of the Public Service Commissions in Wyoming and Nebraska.
Will I receive a bill from Legacy Natural Gas if I switch?
No, your bill will continue to come from Black Hills Energy.
What if I move during the Choice Gas program year?
If you move from one service address to another, or if you are a new customer who moves to a service address within the Choice Gas territory, you will continue with the supplier previously selected at that address. If you are a new construction customer, the utility will mail you a temporary enrollment packet.
For more information about service address issues, call the utility at 888-890-5554.
What do I do if I'm new to the state and I don't have a supplier?
If you are eligible to select a Supplier, you will receive a selection form in the mail with your account number and control number. Legacy Natural Gas would be pleased to provide you with a price quote at that time.

In a word, “choice.” This program allows customers to choose their natural gas commodity supplier, pricing option, and term, giving each customer the opportunity to make the selection that works best for their budget.
What's the difference between a utility and a supplier?
The utility (Black Hills Energy) transports natural gas to your home or farm, sends your monthly bill and handles any service issues you may have. Your natural gas supplier is the company that provides your natural gas commodity. In Nebraska and Wyoming, you can select your supplier, pricing option and term. Regardless of which natural gas commodity supplier you select, your utility is still Black Hills Energy.
If I change my gas supplier, will my service be disrupted or does the reliability of my service change?
No. Your service will not be disrupted. The only difference that results from choosing a new natural gas commodity supplier may be the price you pay. Your supplier is listed under the Energy Supply portion of your bill.
When is the Choice Gas selection period?
This year’s selection period dates are:
Nebraska Agricultural Selection Period: 2025-26 is 2/6 - 2/19/2025.
Nebraska Residential/Commercial: 2025-26 is 4/3 - 4/23/2025.
Wyoming Residential/Commercial: 2025-26 is 4/3 - 4/23/2025.
What exactly am I selecting?
Price You're selecting the price option for how your natural gas commodity is billed.
Supplier You're selecting the supplier that will provide you with your natural gas commodity. Each participating supplier has undergone an application process, and has proven that they are able to meet all requirements set forth in Black Hills Nebraska Gas, LLC tariff, and Black Hills Wyoming Gas, LLC tariff, as approved by the Public Service Commissions in Nebraska and Wyoming.
Term You're selecting how long you want to lock in the price you pay and the natural gas commodity supplier that will provide you with your natural gas commodity.
What information do I need before I make a selection?
Account number - this is provided by the utility and can be found on your bill and on your selection form.
Confirmation code - a confirmation code is necessary in order to make a selection. Each price quote is paired with a confirmation code and provided to you by the supplier who gave you the quote. The confirmation code ensures that you receive the correct price. Prices can change and confirmation codes are often time-sensitive. Make sure to ask how long your code will be valid, if you don’t plan on signing up right away.
Control number - this number is provided to you directly by the utility and may be found on the selection form included in your packet. It allows you to securely make your selection online or with a natural gas commodity supplier.
Where do I find my control number?
Can’t find your selection form? Click here to view the Black Hills Energy Control Number Lookup tool.
How do I select a natural gas supplier?
Online You may select your natural gas commodity supplier by visiting the Black Hills Choice Gas website at choicegas.com, or by visiting the websites for each participating supplier.
Phone Black Hills Energy’s IVR system can accommodate your choice gas selection. If you decide to use that service, you will need a confirmation code. To retrieve your confirmation code from Legacy Natural Gas via phone, please call 888-452-8231 to speak with a representative.
Mail Black Hills Energy sends a packet to your address each year. Check the Legacy Natural Gas box on the selection form you received in the mail and choose the pricing option you want by writing the corresponding confirmation code next to that option. To get your confirmation code, click here or call our toll-free number, 888.452.8231, to talk with a knowledgeable representative. Once you have made your selection, simply return your ballot in the mail prior to the selection period deadline. Be sure to sign your ballot or it will not be valid.
Supplier You can also make your selection through your chosen natural gas commodity supplier by providing them with your account number and control number. Do not provide your control number to a supplier until you are ready to choose that supplier. Upon doing so, you are authorizing that Supplier to make your Choice Gas selection on your behalf.
Why might the cost of Fixed-Price gas increase if I select a longer term?
Natural gas can be a volatile commodity with prices going up or down substantially over time. Prices may vary depending on several factors, including weather, the supply and demand for natural gas, and lack of certainty in the market. The farther out our contract goes, the less certainty there is, and that is why you may see a higher price for a three-year term, than you would on a one-year term.
What if I don't make a selection?
If you don’t submit a valid selection on or before the deadline, your account automatically rolls over to your current supplier and your pricing will be determined by your current supplier within 15 days of the end of the selection period. Default rates may be higher than a competitive rate that you receive during the selection period.
Does Choice Gas affect distribution charges?
No. Changes in distribution rates can occur from time to time and are subject to the approval of the Public Service Commissions in Wyoming and Nebraska.
Will I receive a bill from Legacy Natural Gas if I switch?
No, your bill will continue to come from Black Hills Energy.
What if I move during the Choice Gas program year?
If you move from one service address to another, or if you are a new customer who moves to a service address within the Choice Gas territory, you will continue with the supplier previously selected at that address. If you are a new construction customer, the utility will mail you a temporary enrollment packet.
For more information about service address issues, call the utility at 888-890-5554.
What do I do if I'm new to the state and I don't have a supplier?
If you are eligible to select a Supplier, you will receive a selection form in the mail with your account number and control number. Legacy Natural Gas would be pleased to provide you with a price quote at that time.
Natural Gas Commodity Price Options: Agricultural Customers
Available Terms: 1-Year, 2-Year, and 3-Year
All natural gas commodity price quotes are based on historical usage and current market conditions.
Legacy Natural Gas offers two types of price options for our Agricultural customers in Nebraska. With both option types, the natural gas commodity portion of your bill will change from month to month.
Why? Because your monthly bill is based on natural gas commodity price and usage.
Natural gas commodity prices can change each month depending on factors like general market conditions, your location, the weather, and other factors.
Usage comes down to how much natural gas commodity you burn each month.
Market Index
A month-to-month market natural gas commodity price per therm changes each month based upon market price fluctuations. This price includes two components you should consider when comparing market index prices: the market index value used and the adder. The index value of your price follows market changes each month, while the adder remains constant throughout the term selected. The natural gas commodity portion of your utility bill will also vary based on your natural gas usage.
Why is there an adder? We buy the natural gas commodity at market value, and then we must get it to you. The adder in your Market Index Price Option covers transportation and other fees associated with delivering the natural gas commodity to your farm.
Fixed Rate Per Therm
A natural gas commodity price per therm that is fixed or “locked in.” This means that even if market prices change, your natural gas commodity price per therm is locked in for the entire term selected. The natural gas commodity portion of your utility bill will vary based on your natural gas usage.
What does a Fixed Rate per Therm price option include? Your quote includes the commodity price, and the fees associated with delivering the gas. There is no additional adder.
Which Price Option is Right for My Farm?
Each farm is different, and so is each season. When it comes to making a selection, Legacy Natural Gas recommends you consider how much risk you are willing to take, and for how long.
Higher Risk: Market Index Price Option With this Price Option, you bear the risk of large moves in the market, and it’s possible that you could encounter a large bill if something drives gas prices sky-high. You could also end up saving money if the market stays nice and stable throughout the year.
Lower Risk: Fixed Rate per Therm Price Option With this Price Option, you could pay a little more than you would have on a Market Index Price Option during a low volatility year but save a lot of money in a high volatility year.
The Choice is yours. Either way, Legacy Natural Gas has you covered. Want more info? Check out our FAQ page or give us a call at 888-452-8231.

Fixed Monthly Bill
This natural gas commodity price option ensures that your bill will be the same price every month. It will not change based on usage or on the market. Once locked in, your bill will stay the same each month for your entire term.
Which Price Option is Right for My Home?
Every person is unique and so is your home. When it comes to making a selection, Legacy Natural Gas recommends you consider how much risk you are willing to take, and for how long.
Highest Risk: Market Index Price Option With this selection, you bear the risk of large moves in the market, and it’s possible that you could encounter a large bill if something drives gas prices sky-high. However, you could end up saving money if the market stays nice and stable throughout the year.
Medium Risk: Fixed Rate Per Therm Price Option With this selection, you are protected from moves in the natural gas commodity market. Depending on what happens in the market, you could pay a little more than you would have on a Market Index Price Option during a low volatility year, but you can save money on a high volatility year. You are, however, exposed to the usage variable. If it’s a very cold winter, and you use more gas, you will pay more.
Low Risk: Fixed Monthly Bill Price Option With this selection, Legacy Natural Gas carries all the risk. You are not exposed to the natural gas commodity market, or the weather. Your commodity price will be the same each month, and you will never see an increase in your winter bill, no matter how cold it gets or how high gas prices go.
The Choice is yours. No matter which pricing option you choose, Legacy Natural Gas has you covered. Want more info? Check out our FAQ page or give us a call at 888-452-8231.
