Time of Use Pricing
For Schedule 32 businesses and organizations
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)
| Time of Use period | Time of Use price* | Basic Service price* |
|---|---|---|
| On-peak | 10.378 ¢ per kWh | 5.842 ¢ per kWh |
| Mid-peak | 5.842 ¢ per kWh | |
| Off-peak | 3.462 ¢ per kWh |
*Your bill includes these electricity charges plus other charges that apply to all PGE customers, such as a basic charge, distribution charge and supplemental adjustments.
Times and seasons
Time of Use pricing periods differ seasonally, because people use power differently in winter than in summer, which changes high-demand times.

Summer (May 1 – Oct. 31) |

Time of Use is best if you use most of your electricity late at night or on weekends. If not, you will not benefit from this plan.
