PROFILE |
 |
Despite its laid-back reputation, the capital of Texas has plenty of energy. Austin Energy is a municipally owned electric utility that serves 350,000 residential and commercial customers. It has a generating capacity of 2,600 MW from coal, gas, and nuclear sources. The utility is expanding its renewable energy base through its GreenChoice program, which offers customers the option to use renewable energy sources such as solar power. Austin Energy is constructing a 180 MW natural gas-fired power plant to ease demand caused by the city's booming high-tech industry. A portion of the utility's revenue goes to the City of Austin General Fund, which is used for services such as fire protection, libraries, and parks.
