Biggest household bargain.
Providing dependable gas and electric service at the lowest possible rates
is our most important job. Since 1961
there have been 3 major reductions
in PG&E rates. In fact, the same
amount of PG&E gas and electricity
costs less today than 30 years ago.
Which means that PG&E service is a
bigger bargain than ever.
