HISTORY
Valley
Energy was originally Valley Cities Gas when it began in 1944.
Its parent company Pennsylvania & Southern Gas Company formed Valley Cities by
acquiring The Athens and Sayre Gas Company (1899), The Athens, Sayre
and South Waverly Heat and Power Company (1899), and The South Waverly
Gas Light Company (1885). The Towanda gas property was acquired for the
Towanda Gas and Water Company (1859) in 1945. The Waverly Gas Light
Company (1883) was acquired in 1959. In the 1970's we acquired a
propane bottled gas business that was sold 10 years later.
In
1994, NUI Corporation of New Jersey acquired the Pennsylvania &
Southern Companies. We operated as NUI Valley Cities Gas until 2002
when the division was sold to C&T Enterprises and became Valley
Energy.
