If you, or someone you know, are struggling to make gas or electric utility payments due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there might be financial assistance available. Many utility providers across the state have agreed to discontinue shutoffs for non-payment during the crisis, and/or suspend late fees to help Oregonians keep the lights on in these. Utility costs include electricity, gas, home energy services, water, sewer, trash removal, and bulk fuels.
