The transaction is expected to close in December 2021. Northwest Natural Holding is headquartered in Portland, and has been doing business for over 160 years in the Pacific Northwest. It owns NW Natural Gas, NW Natural Water, and NW Natural Renewables Holdings. NW Natural is a local distribution company that currently provides natural gas service to approximately 2.5 million people in more than 140 communities in Oregon and Southwest Washington.
