Natural gas is America’s most popular home heating fuel because it is efficient, clean and reliable. In the United States, 52% of all heated homes have natural gas heat. Natural gas is increasingly popular for use in new home construction, businesses and electric generating facilities. Demand for natural gas has increased even during the summer months. This is because summer is when the use of electricity increases and many electric power plants use natural gas. In fact, most new power plants are fueled exclusively by natural gas.
