The province has invested over $1.6 million in Selwyn Township through its Natural Gas Expansion program.
Officials say about 77 homes and businesses will be able to connect to natural gas for the first time.
Peterborough-Kawartha MPP Dave Smith says the government is making good on its promise to deliver affordable energy and expand natural gas pipelines to more communities.
Officials say the average household could save between $250 to $1,500 per year in energy costs by switching to natural gas from costlier fuel sources. Also, businesses are expected to save up to 30 per cent per year on energy costs.
