Natural Gas

As a regional electric utility, Midwest Energy Cooperative understands your need to have reliable and affordable energy services. It is for that reason that we have partnered with Volunteer Energy Services, Inc. (VESI) to offer a natural gas supply alternative for current customers of Consumers Energy, SEMCO and MichCon in Michigan.

VESI was founded in 2001 as an alternative source of energy for commercial natural gas customers. Based in Ohio, it is a full-service and experienced energy provider, supplying natural gas in business and residential settings. VESI serves more than 22,000 businesses, some of which include the Ohio market for McDonald’s Corporation, Wendy’s International, Ohio Public Housing Authorities, Goodyear and Firestone Retail Outlets, and numerous cities and municipalities.

Natural gas, like electricity, is open for customer choice in Michigan. What that means is that you, as the end user, can choose the company that supplies your gas. The infrastructure remains the same, and the distribution, billing and customer service components are still handled by your current gas utility; your bill simply shows a different supplier for the gas.

VESI has a proven track record for saving customers valuable dollars on their natural gas costs. To see how VESI compares to your current utility, click here.

If you like what you see, you can complete a service agreement today by visiting the VESI website. Simply select Midwest Energy from the drop-down list, then put in teammidwest for the password. VESI requires no contract or minimum service agreement. However, if you choose to return to your incumbent utility, you will be required to stay with that utility for at least 12 months.

We would also be happy to mail you a service agreement. Just call us at 1-800-492-5989.
