3/15/2026 3:55:30 PM	Oppose Docket	Louis	Santiago	As a PGE customer I'm opposed to granting PGE any rate increase in residential rates for 2026. I oppose the planned rate adjustment scheduled for April 1, 2026. The costs for grid modernization and infrastructure improvements are capital expenditures that should fall on PGE's investors, not rate payers/consumers.
3/15/2026 8:11:05 PM	Oppose Docket	Bridget	McBride	Every year OPUC allows PGE to blast their rates up, and up, and up... Come summer (and it's going to be a hot one this year) people will die because they can't afford to turn their air conditioning on. Why for the love of all that's holy don't you ever deny them? Why is it on our backs? Why would you even consider data centers in our state that would put an even bigger burden on our electricity and water? How do you sleep at night? Deny this upgrade and have PGE take the profits that they make already to do their improvements — maybe their CEO can take a pay cut. DO SOMETHING FOR THE PEOPLE WHO ARE PAYING THE BILLS. We're dying out here. Vote "NO" on March 25th, 2026.

This will lower the demand and put less burden on the grid. so that consumer will not have to deal with this RATE hike hits within frequent years.
8/12/2026 3:14:28 PM	Oppose Docket	Stephanie	Brady	This rate hike represents undue hardship for many customers. I am one of them. This is all due to the data centers you are bringing in and THEY should be paying the increases NOT your residential customers! We already pay the highest rate for power through you in Marion Co. and I happen to live where you have a monopoly on electricity so I cannot use another provider or I would. Many are on fixed incomes, many are disabled and or require medical equipment to be powered. These increases take food out of mouths, clothes off of backs and undue stress on many of your customers. How about for once, you prioritize CUSTOMERS over businesses and new data centers. Respectfully Stephanie Brady
9/20/2026 8:27:40 AM	Oppose Docket	Shelby	Rinewell	Please understand that this rate increase is unnecessary and places the burden on working people. PGE has raised prices by 60% since 2020. (https://powernw.com/library/pge-rate-increase/)We can’t afford another rate increase, we want this proposal declined. Approving this increase would not only be unwise, but unethical. Upon investigating, data show that inflation-adjusted wage growth since 2020 has been close to zero. (https://www.hamiltonproject.org/data/has-pay-kept-up-with-inflation/) Inflation since 2020 has been between 25-29 percent. With this data, residents have already had an increase of around 30%- there cannot be another increase. With gas, food, and general prices as it is, you need to block this price increase. Residents are already struggling.

Consumers are penalized for cutting back usage: According to the filing, weather-adjusted residential usage per customer declined by 5.3%, creating upward rate pressure as fixed costs are spread across lower average customer consumption. 2. Consumers are penalized for slower population growth: According to the filing, lower local population growth and a lag in residential new construction mean fixed costs are shared across fewer new residential customers than previously forecasted. 3. Consumers are penalized for changes to federal law: According to the filing, changes under H.R. 1, (2025) accelerated the phase-out or restricted eligibility of clean energy tax credits previously available under the Inflation Reduction Act, reducing federal cost offsets for future projects. Additionally, while energy usage slows in the residential sector, energy for large industrial customers has grown by 17% to 22% since the UE 435 rate case. High-tech manufacturing and digital service data centers are driving the majority of this demand expansion. Yes PGE plans to charge data centers higher rates to offset the costs related to this demand, however: if overall residential usage is lower and growth is declining beyond projections, without the industrial demand largely driven by data centers, would the T&D capital additions that drive the justification for this rate increase have even been necessary? Residents have already seen their rates increase from $0.126/kWh in 2021 to $0.2/kWh in 2026. This is significantly higher than the national average rate increase over that same time period. PGE is treating their residential customers like a bailout to fund the growth needed to support industrial customers and other factors beyond our control. When PGE doesn't get tax breaks, they charge us more. When we use less power, they charge us more. When people move away because they can't afford to live here anymore, they charge the rest of us more. What other cost saving measures have PGE considered? Shouldn't the industrial customers pay for all the increased demand if residential use is declining? Please stop this residential rate increase from going forward. Sincerely, Tracy
