✦ Synopsis

few years ago, gas utilities could afford A to watch with detachment as their electric counterparts began seriously implementing energy-efficiency, conservation, and demandside management programs. Now many gas distributors have begun offering the same kinds of programs for their customers. Some may still be planning their entry into this world of reverse thinking, where less is more and where (if regulators cooperate) a thousand cubic feet saved is ; i penny earned.
