UTL

Unitil Corporation

A public utility holding company based in Hampton, New Hampshire, Unitil delivers electricity and natural gas to roughly 215,000 homes and businesses across New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and Maine through five regulated distribution utilities. Though the holding company formed in 1984, its roots stretch back to 19th-century predecessors like the Fitchburg Gas Company, which began supplying coal gas for street lighting in 1852. Its name is a blend of "utility" and "until," and it runs the Granite State interstate pipeline that carries gas to its own Northern Utilities.
