Providing service for more than a century, the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power began delivering water to the city in 1902, and with the water came power. In 1916, LADWP first delivered electricity to the city purchased from the Pasadena Municipal Plant. A year later, LADWP began generating its own hydroelectric power at the San Francisquito Power Plant No. 1. After purchasing the remaining distribution system of Southern California Edison within the city limits in 1922, LADWP became the sole water and electricity provider for the City of Los Angeles. It is now the largest municipally owned electric utility in the nation, serving a population of 4.1 million residents over a 465 square mile area LADWP remains on firm financial footing and serves as a valuable asset to the City of Los Angeles.
