About Customer Choice


The Power of Choice is in Your Hands with The Customer Choice Program
You have options when it comes to choosing your natural gas supplier in BC. Take control of your monthly bill with Buy Low Gas and our worry-free, fixed-price rates.
The Customer Choice Program allows you to select an independent gas marketer with a fixed-term, fixed rate agreement, rather than purchasing natural gas from FortisBC at a variable rate. While a variable rate will rise and fall throughout the year depending on market conditions, our rate remains steady.


Why Should you Choose an Independent Gas Marketer?
- Your natural gas price will not increase for the term of your agreement.
- Predictable costs make for easy budgeting.
- You may experience significant savings if FortisBC’s variable gas rate surpasses your Buy Low Gas fixed rate.

Is Customer Choice available in my area?
The Customer Choice Program is available to residential and commercial customers on the FortisBC distribution system in the Interior, the Lower Mainland, Whistler, Vancouver Island, the Sunshine Coast and Powell River. Customer Choice is not currently available in Revelstoke or Fort Nelson.


How Does it Work?
- Your Choice, Your Terms. Begin by exploring which plan and term is right for you.
- Rate Comparison at a Glance. FortisBC simplifies your decision-making process by publishing a comparison of current rates from different gas marketers. This invaluable tool let’s you make an informed choice based on what matters to you, be that price, term, and more!
- Effortless Enrollment. Found your perfect match? Fantastic! You can sign up directly with Buy Low Gas, creating your custom service agreement with our easy-to-navigate online portal.
- Seamless Transition. Sit back and relax as we coordinate with FortisBC.
- We Procure your Natural Gas. We work as an energy supply broker, purchasing your natural gas from producers, and supplying that natural gas to you through FortisBC.
- Uninterrupted Service. Throughout this process and afterward, FortisBC will continue to provide the safe, reliable delivery of your natural gas through the pipelines they own and operate. FortisBC will continue to read natural gas meters and provide 24-hour emergency service for all natural gas customers. The only change? Your cost of gas on your usual bill will now reflect your fixed Buy Low Gas rate.
