In addition to the distribution of natural gas in Quebec and Vermont, Gaz Métro also owns a number of financial interests in transmission, storage, gas and other underground systems enterprises. The following overview is intended to provide a better understanding of its energy activities, its performance, its history and its corporate structure.
Gaz Métro transports and distributes natural gas in Quebec, in Canada and the northeastern portion of North America. It also sells drinking and wastewater systems, urban heating plants, the maintenance and rental of energy equipment, and wind energy. 
More and more, Gaz Métro serves residential and commercial customers.
In April 2007, Gaz Métro celebrated its 50th birthday. It is exactly 118 years since manufactured gas was first used by Gaz Métro to light the streets of Montreal. At that time Gaz Métro was called the Natural Gas Corporation of Quebec. Ever since, Gaz Métro has been a pillar of Quebec’s energy industry.
Gaz Métro is managed by a team of experienced managers and a qualified board of directors who ensure that the needs of their customers, shareholders and employees are met while complying with strict rules of ethics.
The new corporate image unveiled in 2003 and the signature life in blue reflects a reality – Gaz Métro has been transformed. Visible externally, these changes are the result of a major shift that first began internally.
Gaz Métro believes there is a relationship between ethical management that respects the community, a commitment to corporate responsibility, and good financial return.
