Christmas – like the song says, “It’s the most wonderful time of the year!” There are lights, decorations, parties and presents. People make a point of being more kind and giving. Friends and family make a point to connect and celebrate together.
In the second half of 2023, the Twin Feathers team kicked off a series of blogs and educational studies via our website (www.twinfeathers.com). As we close out this year, we wanted to give a brief review of four major themes from these posts.
Thanksgiving often ushers in thoughts of turkey, stuffing, potatoes, pumpkin pie, and, for many in the U.S., football. This season, I hope we can all find things to be thankful for and use these to help bring people together instead of dividing them.
What will propane prices do this winter? An analysis of almost two decades of historical data, plus our knowledge of current inventory levels and potential weather conditions allows Twin Feathers to give smart advice about whether the market holds more “tricks” than “treats” this winter.
Each winter begins with strong expectations of cold weather, which will drive a demand for more heating. In this post we discuss options for managing warm winter weather, helping your business avoid large fluctuations due to temperature changes and stabilizing your business.
Winter brings cold weather which in turn helps bring propane demand. As we look forward to dropping temperatures, we want to review three important items that can help a propane retailer be prepared for this winter.

We enjoy working with Twin Feathers. Great people who have helped our business!
Twin Feathers has taken the burden of the everyday supply logistics off our plate and allowed us to focus on our operations in the critical times of the year. They have educated our team along the way and helped us brainstorm options/risks that fit our business model. Twin Feathers has allowed the Tevis organization to explore opportunities within the supply and hedging arena that we would not have been exposed to without the relationship.
We experience less angst when making a futures purchase.
They not only taught us how to plan and diversify our supply, but also new ways to protect the price. They have been great at negotiating supply deals and putting plans in place to know we will be secure when the market is not. I am confident that if things get tight we will be in a better position than our competitors.
We can’t say enough about the high level of service the entire team provided us. We relied on them and they came through for us over and over. They are complete professionals and a pleasure to do business with.
It has been one of the best decisions that our company has ever made. The Twin Feathers team have looked after our interests since day one, and have executed the plan each year very well.
Twin Feathers has partnered with energy firms since 1998 to provide transparent, value-driven commodity market advisory services.
