Nextera Energy Services Gas, LLC

Nextera Energy Services Gas, LLC, doing business as Centerpoint Energy Service Retail, delivers natural gas supply, delivery, and distribution services to federal agencies as a prime contractor competing exclusively in full-and-open procurements without set-aside designation. The company is a self-certified small disadvantaged business and limited liability company subsidiary of CenterPoint Energy, Inc., headquartered in Houston, Texas. Nextera Energy Services Gas operates under NAICS 211130 (Natural Gas Extraction) and 211112 (Natural Gas Distribution), with PSC 4610 (Utilities—Gas) framing most of its federal work.

Nextera's federal footprint centers on natural gas commodity procurement—monthly firm fixed-price delivery orders and purchase orders supplying military installations, Department of Veterans Affairs medical centers, Department of Energy research facilities, correctional complexes, and civilian agency buildings. Representative work includes a $20 million delivery order from the Department of Energy Office of Science (awarded June 1, 2025, through May 31, 2027) for natural gas supply to Oak Ridge Reservation in Tennessee; a $36.2 million indefinite delivery contract from the Department of Energy (awarded June 1, 2025, through November 27, 2027) for direct supply and delivery across multiple states including Texas, Tennessee, and Louisiana; and recurring monthly delivery orders to Fort Knox, Kentucky averaging $100,000 to $500,000 per month under Defense Logistics Agency Energy indefinite delivery contracts.

Customer concentration is extreme and anchored to two federal agencies. The Defense Logistics Agency Energy dominates both volume and dollars—18 awards carry $320.8 million in combined potential value (60% of the vendor's total pipeline). The Department of Energy Office of Science accounts for 5 awards valued at $77.9 million (15% of potential value). Together, these two agencies represent 81% of Nextera's combined potential value across all 423 prime awards. The Department of the Army Installation Management Command Northeast and Southeast Regions split 120 awards worth $23.4 million combined, placing them third and fourth by count but substantially behind DLA Energy and DOE in dollar magnitude. The Department of Veterans Affairs contributes 20 awards, and the Bureau of Prisons facilities (United States Penitentiary Leavenworth, Federal Correctional Complex Beaumont, and Federal Correctional Complex Florence) account for recurring monthly gas purchases.

Nextera holds six active indefinite delivery contracts serving as the vehicles through which task orders flow. The Defense Logistics Agency Energy contract SPE60423D7526 (awarded October 1, 2025, $4.3 million ceiling, central United States states including Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Missouri, and Ohio) carries 27 task orders worth $6.7 million combined potential value and targets Fort Knox with monthly natural gas supply orders. The Department of Energy contract 4610119530 (awarded June 1, 2025, $36.2 million ceiling, extending through November 27, 2027) supports delivery orders across southern states to DoD and federal civilian facilities, including the $20 million Oak Ridge order and multiple Veterans Affairs orders. The Defense Logistics Agency Energy contract SPE60423D7515 (awarded June 1, 2023, $18.2 million ceiling, southeastern United States through May 2025) has issued task orders to Department of Veterans Affairs and Department of Energy customers. The Defense Logistics Agency Energy contract SPE60419D7521 (awarded October 1, 2023, $29.7 million ceiling, central United States through September 2025) carries 30 task orders worth $5.9 million. The GSA Public Buildings Service contract GS00P97BSD0051 (awarded October 1, 2024, $10 million ceiling through September 2026) supplies natural gas to Federal Correctional Complex Florence, Dallas, and Piney Point locations, with 38 task orders worth $4.4 million combined potential value. A newly awarded GSA Public Buildings Service contract (awarded December 1, 2026, $298,233.60 ceiling through November 2027) covers natural gas supply at fixed prices to approximately 170 federal facility accounts nationwide across the Department of Veterans Affairs, Bureau of Prisons, USDA, NASA, EPA, and the Department of Energy.

Activity has remained stable over the past five years at 19 to 36 awards annually, with 2025 marking the peak at 36 awards. Most recent awards span October 2026 through December 2026, reflecting ongoing monthly gas deliveries and new GSA Public Buildings Service contract establishment. Four awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $21.6 million, representing modest near-term recompete exposure. Awards obligated total $118.1 million against a combined potential value of $532.3 million, indicating 22% utilization of ceiling authority across the portfolio.

Nextera serves 35 distinct federal customer agencies spanning defense, veterans healthcare, energy research, corrections, civilian infrastructure, and archives. Category concentration is absolute—natural gas distribution accounts for 164 awards, natural gas extraction for 123, crude petroleum and natural gas extraction for 72, and pipeline transportation of natural gas for 13. PSC Utilities—Gas dominates at 242 awards; Gases: Compressed and Liquefied carries 150 awards. The vendor operates as a 100-percent prime contractor with zero sub-award activity in the source data. Nextera is a subsidiary of CenterPoint Energy, Inc., a parent company that itself holds federal contract vehicles and grant awards.
