Power Together: PGE in the Community

We believe in the power of community. That’s why we are working to build the grid of the future for you, with you. Come find us at an upcoming event, join a regional Community Advisory Council, or drop us a note. We look forward to hearing from you!

PGE’s Community Advisory Councils

The community’s voice in helping power Oregon’s energy future.

PGE’s regional Community Advisory Councils (CACs) serve as a collaborative space between PGE and communities we serve. CACs meet on a quarterly or as needed basis and are a forum for community members to better understand and provide feedback and input on PGE projects within the counties we serve.

Our goal is to bring community members into the planning process early so they are informed about upcoming projects and can provide input on project design options and community benefits.

Powering progress

Updating and strengthening the power grid is one of the country’s most critical infrastructure needs, including here in Oregon. This is important work as we further electrify our lives, our economy and move towards a clean energy future - delivering reliable, resilient energy for all.
