About us

We are an organization representing 82 member natural gas co-operative utilities, municipal gas utilities, and First Nations gas utilities in rural Alberta. Every one of our Member Utilities are owned or governed by their communities, making us truly Your Gas Utility. From our very beginnings to today, our focus is on neighbours. The attitude of our pioneers was they wanted to bring natural gas to not just themselves but for their neighbours. We continue with the belief that all Albertans should have access to natural gas, and we work with our communities and people to help us bring this service to the next neighbour. Neighbour helping neighbour has allowed us to build the world’s largest rural natural gas distribution system with 91% of Albertans using natural gas as their primary heating fuel! Our utilities criss-cross this province. We stretch from the northern reaches of the Peace River right down to the United States border (we even cross it at one point!), and from the Saskatchewan border right to the foothills. Our utilities serve family farms, bustling acreage subdivisions, towns and villages, well sites, large industries, and everything in between. The local utility employees construct the pipelines, install the meters, perform the billing, and everything in between. The Federation of Alberta Gas Co-ops Ltd. office is based in Edmonton, AB. We are governed by an eight-member board of directors elected from each of our eight zones across Alberta. This board sets policies and implements strategies on behalf of our Member Utilities. The utilities attend the Federation’s Annual General Meeting to discuss matters important to the Federation as a whole. The Federation provides centralized services to our Member Utilities, such as: training, government relations, maintenance guidelines, insurance, employee and director benefits and pension, gas measurement, inspection of wholesale meters, odorant delivery, and retail billing to name a few.
