We support the recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) and have committed to work toward implementation. Governance of this work is managed by the Corporate Responsibility, Sustainability, & Safety Committee of the Board of Directors (CRS&S) and is included in its Committee Charter. This committee also provides governance for the Company’s efforts for the broader ESG strategies and commitments. Atmos Energy's deliberate, integrated, enterprise-wide approach to TCFD recommendations underscores our commitment to meaningful implementation and continual improvement. We encourage you to read more about our Governance and Risk Management under the Corporate Governance heading. Additionally, we make disclosures based on the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) and Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) frameworks and include relevant key performance indicators (KPIs) where possible. Atmos Energy has opted not to use the CDP framework because it is not tailored to the natural gas utility business. Each report section will include Atmos Energy’s overall approach to managing the topic, available performance data, recent highlights, and any forward-looking statements/goals that can be disclosed.
2021 Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) Index
Code | Accounting Metric | Location or Direct Response |
IF-GU-000.A | Number of: (1) residential, (2) commercial, and (3) industrial customers served | Historical information is available in the Atmos Energy Corporation Statistical Summary, which is available on the Atmos Energy Website. |
IF-GU-000.B | Amount of natural gas delivered to: (1) residential customers, (2) commercial customers, (3) industrial customers, and (4) transferred to a third party | Historical information is available in the Atmos Energy Corporation Statistical Summary, which is available on the Atmos Energy Website. |
IF-GU-000.C | Length of gas (1) transmission and (2) distribution pipelines | At September 30, 2021, in our distribution segment, we owned an aggregate of 71,921 miles (115,745 km) of underground distribution and transmission mains throughout our distribution systems. These mains are located on easements or rights-of-way. We maintain our mains through a program of continuous inspection and repair and believe that our system of mains is in good condition. Through our pipeline and storage segment we also owned 5,699 miles (9,171 km) of gas transmission lines. |
IF-GU-240a.1 | Average retail gas rate for (1) residential, (2) commercial, (3) industrial customers, and (4) transportation services only | Historical information is available in the Atmos Energy Corporation Statistical Summary, which is available on the Atmos Energy Website. |
IF-GU-240a.2 | Typical monthly gas bill for residential customers for (1) 50 MMBtu and (2) 100 MMBtu of gas delivered per year |
For residential customers using 50 MMBtu per year the average bill is $52.95 For residential customers using 100 MMBtu per year the average bill is $85.84 |
IF-GU-240a.3 | Number of residential customer gas disconnections for non-payment, percentage reconnected within 30 days |
This is a metric that we do not publicly disclose. However, we proactively work with customers to provide them with solutions should they experience financial hardship. We are able to provide our customers with financial assistance should the need arise through programs like Sharing the Warmth and LiHEAP. More information about our Energy Assistance Programs can be found in Helping Our Communities Stay Warm. |
IF-GU-240a.4 | Discussion of impact of external factors on customer affordability of gas, including the economic conditions of the service territory | Atmos Energy's natural gas bills are some of the lowest recurring household expenses for our customers in the jurisdictions where we operate. We provide a comparison of our monthly gas bill in our monthly investor report along with providing a detailed chart of our bills historical growth and factors that impact customer bills. |
IF-GU-420a.1 | Percentage of gas utility revenues from rate structures that (1) are decoupled or (2) contain a lost revenue adjustment mechanism (LRAM) | In our distribution segment, we have weather normalization of Weather Normalization Adjustment (WNA) mechanisms in all states, except for Colorado. This substantially mitigates the adverse effects of warmer-than-normal weather for meters in those service areas. We have one formal lost revenue adjustment mechanism called the DSM in Colorado. We also have formula rate mechanisms in place in four states that provide for an annual rate review and adjustment to rates. In our pipeline and storage segment, approximately 80% of this segment’s revenues are earned from delivery services to local distribution companies (including our Mid-Tex Division) under a straight/fixed variable rate design. |
IF-GU-420a.2 | Customer gas savings from efficiency measures by market |
Gas savings efficiency measures are only permissible in jurisdictions where it is allowed by our regulators. Currently we have four energy efficiency programs in our service areas. Colorado (Tariff Sheet 8a) Mississippi (Energy Efficiency Rider Tariff) Mid-Tex (Conservation and Energy Efficiency Rider) Louisiana (Energy Efficiency Rider Tariff) |
IF-GU-540a.1 | Number of (1) reportable pipeline incidents, (2) Corrective Action Orders (CAO), and (3) Notices of Probable Violation (NOPV) | Reportable Pipeline Orders - 6 Corrective Action Orders - 0 Notices or Probable Violation (NOPV) - 0 |
IF-GU-540a.2 | Percentage of distribution pipeline that is (1) cast and/or wrought iron and (2) unprotected steel | We publish this information in our annual DOT Report Filings. Additionally the data is made available on our website, in our annual Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability Report and in our monthly Investor Updates. As of December 31, 2020 we had approximately 6,700 miles of unprotected steel, which represents approximately 9% of our distribution pipeline. All remaining cast-iron pipe was replaced in calendar year 2021. |
IF-GU-540a.3 | Percentage of gas (1) transmission and (2) distribution pipelines inspected |
In fiscal year 2021, we inspected approximately 13% or 740.9 miles of the 5,737 total transmission miles for APT. Atmos Energy surveys the approximately 77,000 miles of our distribution and transmission pipelines at rates and frequencies that meet and often exceed state and federal guidelines. Monitoring frequency of pipelines is determined by federal and state pipeline safety codes, accepted industry standards and internal Atmos Energy practices and procedures. |
IF-GU-540a.4 | Description of efforts to manage the integrity of gas delivery infrastructure, including risks related to safety and emissions |
Atmos Energy is committed to being the safest provider of natural gas. That's why we invest approximately $2.0 billion a year to modernize our pipeline infrastructure. Our system includes more than 77,000 miles of distribution and transmission pipelines, as well as smaller “service” pipelines that connect directly to homes and businesses. We bury much of our pipe underground, where it is away from weather and activities that commonly cause damage and leaks. Atmos Energy has always had processes and procedures in place to ensure the safety of our distribution and transmission network. During fiscal year 2019, we adopted a Pipeline Safety Management System (PSMS), which formally documents our processes and procedures under a systematic and structured framework that builds on our established pipeline safety programs. PSMS was developed by the American Petroleum Institute and is a recommended practice for the pipeline industry. All Atmos Energy employees play a role in our PSMS through identification, prevention, and remediation of operational safety risks. Additionally, because third party damage represents one of the greatest threats to distribution systems, Atmos Energy administers a Damage Prevention Ambassador Program that empowers team members to identify and prevent potential digging accidents in the field. In fiscal year 2021, ambassadors inspected more than 37,000 excavation sites helping to prevent many potentially dangerous and costly accidents. Additionally we operate an emergency hotline 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to respond and investigate reports of natural gas leaks. Atmos Energy is committed to practices that reduce methane emissions from our transmission and distribution systems, including infrastructure renewal programs to replace aging steel and cast iron distribution pipelines. Atmos Energy utilizes a number of practices in its day-to-day operations to prevent or reduce methane emissions. Some of the practices include but are not limited to the following:
