Con Edison had asked for about 440 million dollars more in annual gas delivery revenue, which would have added roughly 46 dollars a month to a typical heating customer's bill. The January 2026 joint proposal with the Public Service Commission cut that down to a 4.4 percent gas rate increase for 2026, part of a three year plan running through 2028.
What it means for your bill: A typical gas heating customer using 100 therms a month pays about 10.67 dollars more starting in 2026 under the approved plan, far less than Con Edison originally asked for.
