Electric, gas and telephone utilities serve millions of customers in Georgia, but there are many customers who can't afford gas, electricity or basic phone service without the help of payment assistance programs. Many electric, gas, and telephone utility companies offer payment plans to their customers who qualify. They may allow deferred payment for those who cannot pay their whole bill or delay disconnection for customers trying to pay their bills. Many civic groups, charitable organizations, and churches in local communities provide payment assistance to low income customers. For more information, contact your gas, electric, or telephone service provider.
The spread of COVID-19 taught Georgia and the United States to use innovative ways of keeping our workforces and workplaces healthy. To assist in that effort the Georgia Public Service Commission utilized Alternative Electronic Filing Procedures. As the state and country move toward post-COVID life, the PSC will continue to utilize the procedures outlined below for the convenience of everyone who utilizes our services.

Georgia Public Service Commission
The mission of the Georgia Public Service Commission is to exercise its authority and influence to ensure that consumers receive safe, reliable and reasonably priced telecommunications, electric and natural gas services from financially viable and technically competent companies.
January 23, 2025 – (ATLANTA) The Georgia Public Service Commission voted unanimously on Thursday to approve a new rule that allows Georgia Power to charge new data centers in a manner that will protect ratepayers from cost shifting.
The new rule approved Thursday derives from the Public Service Commission’s decision on the interim Integrated Resource Plan, unanimously approved by Commissioners in April 2024. That docket (55378) added extra capacity to Georgia’s power grid.
The new Georgia Power rule states that any new customers using more than 100 megawatts of energy can be billed using terms and conditions beyond those used for standard customers to address risks associated with these large-load users. In addition to site specific costs, the data centers would pay for costs incurred by upstream generation, transmission and distribution to these large-load power users as construction of the data centers progresses. This protects Georgia Power’s residential and other commercial/industrial customers.
