Your budget billing amount is calculated using your average annual bill amount base upon your past 12 months of usage and current rates. 

We'll review your account at least twice a year to prevent a large overpayment or underpayment from accumulating. Your payment amount may increase or decrease based on your usage patterns and/or rates currently in effect. 

Budget Billing allows you to pay the same amount for your NorthWestern Energy bill every month, eliminating the seasonal highs and lows.

You pay the same amount each month. No surprises, just one easy payment amount to plan for.

You can pay your bill in person at one of our local walk-in offices.
