Proposed Rate Increase
PGE, which provides electric service to approximately 920,000 Oregon customers, filed a request to increase overall revenues by $202 million or approximately 7.4% for all customer types combined. If approved, residential single-family customers using an average of 886 kilowatt hours (kWh) per month would see a bill increase of $11.33. For a residential customer in a multi-family home using an average of 590 kWh per month, bills would increase by $8.23 Actual percentage increases will vary depending on customer type and usage.
Public Comment Process
As a publicly regulated utility, PGE’s electricity prices are determined through a public process governed by the Oregon Public Utility Commission. This process begins when the utility files a rate review case.
