Time of Use Pricing

For Schedule 32 businesses and organizations

Time of Use is a great option for businesses who tend to use most of their electricity late at night or on weekends. If that's not your routine, this plan won't be the best fit for your business. Review our Conditional Guarantee.


Pricing periods

Time of Use pricing is different for different times of the day. We call these periods:

  • On-peak (times when demand is high)

  • Mid-peak

  • Off-peak (times when demand is low)

Your bill includes these electricity charges plus other charges that apply to all PGE customers, such as a basic charge and supplemental adjustments.
