The program provides customers with a consistent payment amount year round and customers who pay on-time and in-full receive credit for the balance of their current bill as well as credit to reduce their outstanding balance. Over 24 months, a customer can eliminate their outstanding balance by paying on-time and in-full.

Who is eligible for PIPP Plus?

Ohioans with a household income at or below 150 percent of the federal poverty guideline that are a customer of a Public Utility Commission of Ohio-regulated gas or electric utility.
