Connecticut lets natural gas sellers compete to supply gas to commercial and industrial customers, delivered over the regulated utility's pipes. Under CGS 16-258a, a seller must register with PURA and meet the conditions of registration before serving customers.
One of those conditions is financial responsibility: a registered seller must maintain a bond or other security, in an amount and form PURA approves, for at least the registration period, to ensure its financial responsibility and its supply of natural gas to end-use customers under its contracts and arrangements.
The bond stands behind the seller’s obligations to its customers and the system — if the seller fails to perform and someone is harmed, they can recover against the bond, and if the surety pays, the seller repays the surety. PURA does not mandate a specific bond form, so any acceptable form from a licensed surety works. Enter the amount PURA approved, and we issue it at a flat 3% with no credit check.
Submit the application with the bond amount PURA approved — energy-supplier bonds get a quick underwriting look, with no credit pull.
