Company Profile

Peoples Gas System

Company Overview

Established in 1895, Peoples Gas System is Florida’s largest natural gas distribution utility. Our diverse and inclusive team of nearly 750 employees serves 445,000 residential, commercial and industrial customers throughout the state with safe, affordable and reliable natural gas.
We’re an innovative and collaborative company with engaged and empowered team members who embrace diversity and are valued and celebrated to drive our success.
We’re continuing to build our culture that thrives on and embraces individual uniqueness. We have a shared dedication to working safely for ourselves and the communities we serve.

Company History

Peoples Gas is built on more than 125 years of history rooted in integrity, principle-based leadership, and a commitment to doing the right thing every day. We're dedicated to maintaining and growing a culture of strong, ethical governance in partnership with our parent company, Emera Inc., as a way to ensure we operate, grow and engage responsibly and sustainably, both now and in the future.

Our Relationship with Emera
In 2016, Peoples Gas joined Emera Inc., a geographically diverse energy and services company headquartered in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. Emera primarily invests in regulated electricity generation and electricity and gas transmission and distribution with a strategic focus on transformation from high carbon to low carbon energy sources. Emera has investments throughout North America, and in four Caribbean countries.

Emera's environmental, social and governance (ESG) commitments are also core to Peoples Gas' strategy, culture and daily operations. Like Emera, we are focused on delivering cleaner, affordable and reliable energy, responsibly and safely.
