How do suppliers nominate gas for the various commercial service classifications?
• It depends on the service classification. A supplier is responsible for managing the customer’s natural gas usage and nominating an appropriate amount of natural gas for customers under Firm Transportation (FT) and Interruptible Service (IS) transport classifications. The supplier is also cashed out on a monthly basis on their aggregate FT and IS pool. Both these service classifications are designed for larger volume commercial and industrial customers. Automatic meter reading (AMR) devices are required on FT and IS meters. Under General Service Large (GSL) transport service, New Jersey Natural Gas (NJNG) supplies both transportation and balancing service. On a monthly basis, NJNG provides daily required nominations for a supplier’s aggregate pool of customers using its balancing service. Daily required nominations are provided for GSL as well as General Service Small (GSS) and Residential Service (RS) transport accounts.
