The Kansas City Star is reporting that there’s some good news on the winter home heating front for most natural gas customers in Kansas City, as natural gas customers probably won’t get unexpected high gas prices like they have been in recent years.
Natural gas, the most popular fuel in the Midwest, is expected to have a mild price increase, at least compared with the surging cost of heating oil and propane in this winter 2007. That’s according to the Energy Information Administration’s annual outlook for winter heating costs, released Tuesday from Washington D.C.
The United States nationwide average winter bill for homes that use natural gas, usually among the most up and down pricing of commodities, is expected to total $891 for the winter 2007, up 9.5 percent from last year’s winter heating bill of 2006.
