Today, we have two main gates, 110 distribution regulator stations and more than 790 miles of natural gas pipeline that delivers natural gas to more than 33,350 customers in the City of Greer and surrounding areas.

Natural Gas Rates
Natural gas prices are determined by trading on the open market, much like the stock market, so the price may vary from CPW’s base price. Rates may change monthly. Rates shown are current only as of the posting date on the attached Rate Sheet PDF documents.
Understanding Your Bill - Purchase Gas Adjustment (PGA)
Purchase Gas Adjustment (PGA)
In the natural gas industry, a Purchase Gas Adjustment (PGA) is in place to reflect the changing market prices for natural gas. Greer CPW passes wholesale costs to its customers with no mark-up or impact to Greer CPW’s net revenue depending on what we had to pay for natural gas the previous month.
While we do our best to project natural gas costs for the upcoming year, the PGA could go up or down depending on market price changes. This type of adjustment has been part of Greer CPW’s billing structure for many years. In September 2025, when we introduced a new customer bill design, we added a separate line item for the PGA to provide better clarity on each utility’s charges.
