About PNGC

With PNGC…you’ve got the power

PNGC Power is a Portland-based electric generation and transmission (G & T) cooperative owned by 16 Northwest electric distribution cooperative utilities with service territory in seven western states (Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana, Utah, Nevada and Wyoming).

Our company creates value for its member systems by providing power supply and other management services. PNGC Power is a top aggregator of geographically diverse loads in the region and became the first electric cooperative in the country to receive a power marketing license from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.

For more than a decade, PNGC Power has consistently offered members a competitive advantage despite significant weather and market-related challenges. With the benefit of having some of the most experienced professionals in the energy industry and by offering advanced tools, technology and policy leadership, we are able to serve our members’ load requirements cost-effectively. By coming together as PNGC Power, our member co-op utilities have more options than any one of them could have alone. Member benefits include:

  • More buying leverage
  • Access to advanced technical capabilities
  • Financial strength; backed by $850 million in assets of member-owners
  • Risk management capability and increased control
  • Ability to meet customers’ power needs in the new era of public power

PNGC member utilities have the collective clout to offer their customers reliable, low-cost power options at stable prices, now, and in the future thanks to the intense planning and forward-thinking vision of the PNGC Power Board and staff.
