How to Enroll

  1. Use our form to quickly request a natural gas quote or electricity quote or call—1.855.466.2842.

  3. After you’re approved, we’ll send you pricing options, and you’ll select a natural gas and/or electrical program that best fits your business needs.
  4. Sprague will then send you a form to lock in your energy costs for the contract period—so you can start locking in your rates immediately. 

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Sprague will deliver your natural gas and/or electricity requirements to the utility, and then the utility will deliver the actual gas and/or electricity to you.

Get started by requesting a natural gas quote or electricity quote—or by calling 1.855.466.2842. If you have questions about your utility's choice program, call them directly at the customer service phone number located on your natural gas and/or electricity bill(s).

Sprague provides a full range of energy management options, including natural gas, electricity, diesel, heating oil, gasoline and more for your business—while always keeping an eye on the bottom line.
As a natural gas and/or electricity customer, Sprague will be your energy provider. Your utility will continue to provide the distribution of the energy to your business. Sprague is responsible for delivering the fuel (natural gas or electricity) to your utility —sourcing it from different geographies across the United States. We also have the ability to create customized energy management program for you, delivering an energy solution that best meets your requirements and appetite for risk. If you ever have emergencies or delivery issues with your gas and/or electricity, you would still contact your utility directly for support.

Sprague is one of the largest independent suppliers of energy products and related services in the Northeast. Founded in 1870 as a distributor of coal, Sprague now offers natural gas, electricity, diesel fuel, heating oil, and much more to businesses throughout the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic. Our market and trading capabilities, coupled with a network of strategically located terminals and pipeline access,
allow Sprague to respond to rapidly changing customer needs.
Most customers do. The savings depend on the utility's approved rate (which changes), your contract price, and when you purchase your gas and/or electricity supply from Sprague. However, with Sprague, you have options! You can either lock in your natural gas and/or electricity costs right now—or float with the market until the price is right for you, and then lock in the rate. If you continue to purchase your natural gas and/or electricity from your utility, you may not have the ability to lock in prices and avoid the market swings.
No. You’ll receive the same quality service from your utility regardless of the company that provides your natural gas and/or electricity.
