PrintDistribution
Spectra Energy provides natural gas distribution service to about 1.3 million customers.
Distribution of natural gas is the final step in providing gas to consumers. Typically, distribution occurs through smaller pipelines at lower pressures and across shorter distances than the main Transmission segment.
Larger industrial, commercial and electric generation customers usually receive natural gas directly from the main interstate or intrastate pipelines, but most end-users receive natural gas from a local distribution company or LDC.
Spectra Energy provides natural gas distribution service to about 1.3 million residential, commercial and industrial customers in over 400 communities in northern, southwestern and eastern Ontario through its Union Gas Limited subsidiary.
