Several people reached out to the Action News Troubleshooters, saying they are now being charged double and even triple for a certain adjustment related to the weather.
PHILADELPHIA -- Philadelphia Gas Works customers have seen their bills skyrocket and it isn't because they're using more gas.
The Troubleshooters have been working on this issue after viewers alerted us to alarming increases on their gas bills in the form of something called a"Weather Normalization Adjustment."The good news is a change could be on the way after our inquiry to PGW. An Action News viewer in Mayfair sent the Troubleshooters her bill which shows a Weather Normalization Adjustment of nearly $80.A PGW customer from South Philadelphia shared her bill as well. She was flabbergasted when she saw a Weather Normalization Charge of $107.22."So I called and how they explained it was basically we didn't use enough gas so they're charging us for the unused gas," said Heron.The adjustment is applied to monthly bills from October through May.
PGW said this makes customers' gas heating bills more predictable and stable and lets utilities cover the costs of maintaining their systems even when gas use is lower than expected.

G-7 aims to create club of nations to boost climate actionMembers of the Group of Seven major economies pledged Tuesday to create a new ' climate club ' for nations that want to take more ambitious action to tackle global warming. The move, championed by G-7 summit host German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, will see countries that join the club agree on tougher measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions with the aim of keeping global temperatures from rising more than 1.5 Celsius (2.7 Fahrenheit) this century compared to pre-industrial times. Speaking at the end of the three-day summit, Scholz said the aim was to “ensure that protecting the climate is a competitive advantage, not a disadvantage.”
