A typical electric bill can experience some dramatic ups and downs as electricity needs change during the year. PGE’s Equal Pay option evens out your monthly bill so you make the same payment every month. It’s predictable and easier on your budget.

Here’s how it works
We figure an average payment based on past usage. That average becomes your monthly payment. You’ll still know exactly how much electricity you’re using because your bill will show both your actual usage and your Equal Pay amount.

After 12 months we review your actual electric use to determine the Equal Pay amount for the next 12 months. If your actual use differed from the Equal Pay amount, any underpayment or overpayment will simply be figured into the Equal Pay amount for the next year.

Residential customers, small businesses, nonprofit organizations and churches can participate in Equal Pay, providing all electric bills are current.
