Q4. Why isn't the price of natural gas regulated?
NCUC - Higher Natural Gas PricesThe NCUC has no jurisdiction over the cost of the gas itself. Here in North Carolina, most of our gas comes from along the Gulf of Mexico, where this State has no jurisdiction. Years ago, the price of natural gas at the wellhead was regulated by the federal government. However, federal regulators, to please consumers, tended to keep the price of gas low. Low gas prices encouraged people and businesses to use more gas but discouraged gas producing companies from drilling for it.
