Provide Peace of Mind During Hurricane Season
Living in Florida we are keenly aware of how a storm or hurricane can interrupt our power supply. Since natural gas is delivered continuously underground it’s more reliable than diesel or propane, which is delivered by truck and could be hard to get in times of post-storm emergency. Natural gas is resilient, affordable, and safe making it a perfect fit for single-family home and multifamily standby generators.
Plus, with our Energy Equipment Leasing program builders can keep costs down while still delivering the unique selling proposition that reliable power brings to a new Florida community. peoplesgas.com/lease/
