gas distribution pricing

If you use natural gas you will have a contract with a gas retailer for the supply of natural gas to your home or business. Retailers will generally bundle the cost of services, such as the purchase price of wholesale gas, transmission, distribution services and metering, to provide you with one monthly bill.

Vector’s gas prices are only for the cost of distributing gas across our network and do not include the cost of delivering gas on First Gas’ transmission network.

Our annual price changes are limited under regulation to inflation (Consumer Price Index), plus any under/over recovery from the previous year (headroom) and changes in pass-through costs (e.g. council rates and statutory levies). In the 2020 calendar year, it is estimated that our gas distribution prices accounted for approximately 32% of an average residential consumer bill.
