Atmos Energy

According to the American Gas Association, using natural gas appliances for heating, water heating, cooking and clothes drying can save an average homeowner $840 per year. Using natural gas is more comfortable, reliable, clean, environmentally friendly and efficient.  It is harvested domestically and it’s safe.  Atmos Energy has been providing safe and reliable natural gas to Mississippians for more than 90 years.  They’re proud to partner with their communities and regulators to spur economic growth in their Mississippi service territory.  In every community, Atmos cooperates and coordinates with community partners, first responders and local businesses.

In Meridian, Atmos Energy serves 14,000 customers.  Atmos gives back $100,000 yearly in franchise fees to the city and has construction projects ongoing in Meridian focused on pipe replacement.  These projects are designed to improve their system’s safety and reliability.  Major customers include NAS Meridian, Southern Cast, Atlas Roofing, Bimbo Bakery, all hospitals in Meridian and APAC. 

Community service is a key part of their culture.  Atmos has a long history of committing capital to charitable organizations that offer services they care most about; health, education, and community development.  In 2019, they directed $365,127 to well-deserving philanthropies throughout their service territory.  A particular point of pride this year for Atmos Energy was the $50,000 contribution to Meridian’s Children Museum and $25,000 to the Arts and Entertainment Museum.  Atmos Energy VP of Public Affairs, Bobby Morgan says, “We will never forget that we live in the communities we serve, which is all the more reason to give them our best.”
