Time of Day pricing
If you’re a residential customer, you might consider switching to Time of Day pricing. It's less than our Basic Service pricing all hours and days except for the On Peak timeframe of 5–9 p.m. weekdays. So, if you can shift your some of your energy use, you can save on your bill.

Medium and large businesses

Your bill also includes a basic charge, transmission costs, distribution costs and required adjustments.
Pricing is based directly on the cost to provide electric service and is regulated by the Oregon Public Utility Commission.
Market-based pricing
Did you know you can purchase your power from an alternate service provider or switch to PGE’s daily market pricing? Either way, PGE still provides the reliability and service you depend on.
