flag New Orleans officials criticized Delta Utilities over rising bills and poor service, citing a 56% gas price surge linked to increased U.S. LNG exports.

flag New Orleans City Council members questioned Delta Utilities on sharply rising bills and poor outreach during a Feb. 10, 2026, meeting. flag They criticized the company for not automatically enrolling former Entergy customers in levelized billing and called for clearer bills and better communication. flag Rising natural gas prices—up 56% in the past year—are tied to increased U.S. LNG exports, with six of eight U.S. LNG facilities in Louisiana. flag The U.S. Energy Information Agency projects a 25% price rise by late 2027 and a tripling of global LNG exports in the next decade, affecting both gas and electric customers, as 75% of Entergy’s power comes from natural gas. flag Advocates urged the city to reduce fossil fuel dependence amid ongoing cost volatility.
