MD gas supplier integrity bonds.
$2,500 flat.
Maryland's Public Service Commission licenses gas suppliers, and an applicant that can’t satisfy the financial-integrity tests must post a $250,000 bond naming the Commission as sole beneficiary. Ours is $2,500 flat — the price you see is the checkout price — with one soft credit pull that never affects your score.

What it is and who needs it.
What the financial integrity bond guarantees
Maryland's Public Service Commission licenses gas suppliers under the Public Utilities Article, and its regulations require an applicant to demonstrate financial integrity. A supplier that cannot satisfy the financial-integrity tests — or has not received a sufficient unsecured credit allowance from PJM Interconnection — must provide security, typically a $250,000 surety bond.
The bond names the Commission as sole beneficiary, is continuous, and is cancellable only on 60 days’ notice unless the Commission orders it maintained. Its language lets the Commission draw on it if it determines the supplier is financially insolvent or unable to meet its obligations as a licensed gas supplier.
It is not insurance for you. If the Commission draws on the bond and the surety pays, you repay the surety. The amount is fixed at $250,000 by the rule, so the price is fixed too: $2,500, with one soft credit pull that never affects your score.
