Market-Based Pricing
Upcoming election window
February annual election window
The next opportunity to modify your pricing plan selection will be during the February election window, which will be open from 8 a.m. on Feb. 17 to 5 p.m. on Feb. 19. During this window you may choose to leave PGE’s standard service. Changes are effective April 1, 2026.
For more information on the February election window, read our FAQ. You can modify your plan via a contract. Please contact the PGE Business Services team at 800-822-1077.
Depending on your organization’s management strategy, you may want to consider your options regarding your pricing plan. You can choose how long you want to be on a market-based plan and who you buy electricity from. These choices can have a significant and long-term impact on your company’s future energy costs, so it’s important to have the information you need to make the best decision for your business.

Your options
Stay on PGE’s standard service. It’s open to all businesses within our service area and you don’t need to take any action or sign contracts to stay on it.
Choose short-term market-based power.
Choose long-term market-based power.
PGE’s Daily Market Pricing
If you choose PGE’s Daily Market pricing, your prices are based on the Intercontinental Exchange Mid-Columbia (Mid-C) Daily on- and off- peak Electricity Firm Price Index (ICE-Mid-C Firm Index). Prices will vary, as they reflect the supply and demand in the energy market. Daily pricing information is available for a fee at theice.com 
and in other financial publications.
Direct Access through an ESS
With this option, you will be electing to purchase power from a third-party Electricity Service Supplier (ESS).*
These ESSs are registered to work with PGE:
Avangrid Renewables, LLC
Calpine Energy Solutions, LLC
Constellation NewEnergy
Shell Energy North America
Brookfield Renewable Energy Marketing US, LLC
They may contact you to offer their services. Delivery charges, adjustments, taxes and other standard fees regulated by the Oregon Public Utility Commission will still apply and reflect on your PGE bill.
*PGE cannot guarantee the accuracy of ESS claims and their ability to serve load now or in the future. If you have questions or would like to validate claims regarding PGE's standard service pricing, please contact business.outreach@pgn.com.
