Incorporated in 1906, Glendale purchased its electric utility in 1909, obtaining power from outside suppliers. In 1937, it began receiving power from the Hoover Dam and inaugurated the first unit of its own steam generating plant units with 258 MW of gas-fired steam and combustion generating capacity. Glendale Water & Power (GWP) has a diversified portfolio that also includes coal, nuclear, and hydro generating resources, as well as a comprehensive renewables resource program in landfill gas, wind, and geothermal projects. Today, GWP provides reliable electric services to over 84,800 residential, commercial and industrial customers within a 33 square mile area. GWP continues to invest in improving the system infrastructure to ensure its long-term reliability.
