Portable Gas Solutions
History
Pacific Gas and Electric Company is California’s largest natural gas and electric utility, with an expansive portfolio of portable natural gas equipment for our Peak Shaving Program. Since 1998, we have been using our portable natural gas equipment to provide temporary support during winter peak load. A number of applications have since been explored and developed to benefit PG&E and its customers, such as providing a portable natural gas service for planned or emergency outages. Our technical expertise and versatility of our equipment allows us to offer both Compressed Natural Gas and Liquefied Natural Gas services!

Why PG&E?
PG&E’s Peak Shaving Program Team knows the ins and outs of gas transmission and operations and trained to use the equipment in numerous applications.
