At South Jersey Gas, a subsidiary of SJI, our commitment to the communities we serve goes beyond your gas meter. We invest in the local neighborhoods in which we live and work, modernizing our infrastructure for a more resilient future and deploying dedicated utility crews around the clock to keep you safe and warm. We’re proud to power the places we call home.
Reliability You Can Trust
We are committed to a modern, resilient energy grid. Through our multi-year infrastructure investment programs, we ensure your service is reliable and prepared for any challenge—natural or man-made.
Pipe Modernization: According to the American Gas Association, America’s natural gas utilities invest $37 billion each year in enhancing the safety of natural gas distribution and transmission systems. South Jersey Gas and Elizabethtown Gas, combined, have about 19,200 miles of pipe in service. That’s enough pipe to go from New York to Los Angeles about 7 times. And we are currently replacing 250 miles of aging pipe across the South Jersey Gas system.
Enhanced Reliability: We’ve spent years investing in our infrastructure for severe and cold weather, and our response has demonstrated the importance of making those investments. In fact, during the recent cold snap, and due to infrastructure upgrades such as the New Sentury Pump Station, the McKee City LNG Facility, and the replacement of vintage and low pressure, cast iron facilities, our crews responded to a record-breaking demand during that period without any major outages reported.
Dedicated Frontline Heroes: Our teams work around the clock in harsh winter weather, providing rapid, efficient leak repairs when our customers need them most. They are members of the very communities they serve—neighbors helping neighbors—restoring not just service, but peace of mind.
Economic Growth: Our investments strengthen local economies and modernize New Jersey’s energy infrastructure for the next generation.
Committed Community Partner
At South Jersey Gas, we do more than maintain pipes; we support the people who live alongside them, by providing vital funding and volunteer hours to organizations delivering critical support to those in need.
Annual Giving: Our ongoing commitment to giving back ensures local programs have the resources they need to thrive. Last year alone, SJI and our dedicated employees donated over $325,000 to local non-profits. South Jersey Gas and Elizabethtown Gas also donates $500,000 to SHARES each year for energy assistance and raised significant funds for the American Heart Association and regional hospital foundations.
Direct Impact: The company provided over $53,000 in scholarships through various New Jersey educational foundations and supported local Chambers of Commerce. The talent attraction team also fostered a culture of learning and development in the community by attending 24 career fairs and hosting diverse internship programs in partnership with local schools.
Volunteer Spirit: Our team contributes countless hours to statewide and regional organizations, fostering a stronger New Jersey. Last year, our employee volunteers completed over 3,000 volunteer hours.
Community Engagement: Our Customer Outreach Team works tirelessly to support our communities by providing essential utility assistance information and program benefits.
