What gas usage data can C&I customers get from YCNGA?▾

Monthly consumption in therms, visible on billing statements through the portal at my.ycnga.com/onlineportal, with up to 24 months of history as PDF downloads. There is no AMI deployment, so no hourly or sub-monthly interval data exists — monthly meter reads determine billed consumption.

Does YCNGA support Green Button, EDI, or an API?▾

No. YCNGA isn't in the Green Button Alliance database, offers no ESPI XML export, publishes no EDI specifications or trading partner process, and has no public API or developer portal. As a 29-employee municipal gas authority, its data infrastructure is portal-only.

How does an energy consultant access a YCNGA customer's data?▾

Obtain a signed authorization letter from the account holder, then contact (803) 323-5304 or customer.care@ycnga.com with account numbers and the data scope (e.g., 12 months of billing and consumption). Expect manual delivery — emailed statements or consumption reports — with monthly follow-up; no automated authorization exists.

Can aggregators set up bulk data access for a C&I portfolio?▾

Possibly via negotiation. YCNGA's Business Development team at (803) 323-5458 handles commercial/industrial inquiries and may offer batch reporting or custom exports under a data sharing arrangement. Nectar provides API access to YCNGA billing data with customer authorization — see docs.nectarclimate.com; otherwise plan for a manual or batch process.
