("WGL Energy"), a leading retail supplier of electricity, natural gas, and renewable energy solutions with over 25 years of experience primarily in the Mid-Atlantic region, announced it will begin serving the state of New Jersey for the first time, marking a strategic expansion in the retail energy market.

As WGL Energy enters the New Jersey market as a trusted and experienced provider, it will initially focus on providing energy choice for large commercial and industrial customers, leveraging its expertise, reliability, and commitment to strong customer excellence to establish a solid foothold in the region. Soon after, WGL Energy plans to broaden its reach to residential and small businesses.

Having secured necessary regulatory approvals and licenses to meet the rigorous utility qualification standards in the state, WGL Energy looks forward to meeting the long-term natural gas and electricity needs of New Jerseyans.
