Where does your electricity come from?

Tacoma Power produces or buys electricity from a number of different resources. We are providing you with information about the fuel used to generate the electricity you used in 2007.

The State of Washington requires that electric utilities provide this information to customers on a regular basis. The Washington Office of Trade and Economic Development, Energy Policy Section, publishes the information, based on reports from electric utilities.

If you have questions about this information, call Tacoma Power’s Energy Information Office, 253-502-8377.
