The Federation is an umbrella organization representing 80 Member natural gas distribution utilities in rural Alberta.
About us
We are an organization representing 82 member natural gas co-operative utilities, municipal gas utilities, and First Nations gas utilities in rural Alberta. Every one of our Member Utilities are owned or governed by their communities, making us truly Your Gas Utility. From our very beginnings to today, our focus is on neighbours. The attitude of our pioneers was they wanted to bring natural gas to not just themselves but for their neighbours. We continue with the belief that all Albertans should have access to natural gas, and we work with our communities and people to help us bring this service to the next neighbour. Neighbour helping neighbour has allowed us to build the world’s largest rural natural gas distribution system with 91% of Albertans using natural gas as their primary heating fuel! Our utilities criss-cross this province. We stretch from the northern reaches of the Peace River right down to the United States border (we even cross it at one point!), and from the Saskatchewan border right to the foothills. Our utilities serve family farms, bustling acreage subdivisions, towns and villages, well sites, large industries, and everything in between. The local utility employees construct the pipelines, install the meters, perform the billing, and everything in between. The Federation of Alberta Gas Co-ops Ltd. office is based in Edmonton, AB. We are governed by an eight-member board of directors elected from each of our eight zones across Alberta. This board sets policies and implements strategies on behalf of our Member Utilities. The utilities attend the Federation’s Annual General Meeting to discuss matters important to the Federation as a whole. The Federation provides centralized services to our Member Utilities, such as: training, government relations, maintenance guidelines, insurance, employee and director benefits and pension, gas measurement, inspection of wholesale meters, odorant delivery, and retail billing to name a few.

Honoring 60 years of excellence! On August 21st, we were thrilled to celebrate the Federation of Alberta Gas Co-ops Ltd.’s milestone anniversary with an unforgettable event. We welcomed Members, key vendors and stakeholders, Honorary Federation Members, and former Board Directors to our office and training centre for an afternoon commemorating the extraordinary efforts and collaboration in reaching 60 years of service. It was wonderful to hear stories from the early days of Alberta’s natural gas distribution system, and to see so many people reconnect with former colleagues and board members. It was an event to remember! Special thank you to Gas Alberta Inc., Alberta Federation of REA's Ltd, Ste. Anne Natural Gas Co-op Ltd., and the Managers Group of Alberta Gas Co-ops for your commemorative gifts and for sharing your kind words, to the many MLAs who took time out of their day to stop by, and thank you to Amber Bauer for providing superb entertainment! Here's to six decades of innovation and partnership. Thank you for being part of our journey! #CheersTo60Years #FederationCentre #FuelingProgress #RuralAlberta #Community #Collaboration

As the leaves start to change, school starts up again, and we cozy up for fall, we're reminiscing on the incredible summer we've had! We started our event season with a Federation Centre potluck lunch with Alberta Federation of REA's Ltd and the Alberta Federation of Rural Water Co-operatives Ltd. This was a perfect opportunity for our groups to enjoy each other's company, share some laughs, and to take some time to decompress before moving full-swing into event-mode. With this and a couple of unforgettable events, it's been a season of camaraderie and celebration. Cheers to memories made and more to come! Stay tuned for some more updates on our summer events! #FederationCentre #FuelingProgress #RuralAlberta #Community #Collaboration
