Tennessee Valley Authority
 PROFILE
A working monument to the New Deal, Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) is the largest public power producer in the US, with 29,450 MW of generating capacity. Created by Congress in 1933, the federal corporation transmits electricity to 158 local power distributors (84% of sales), which serve some 8 million customers. TVA covers 80,000-sq.-mi., serving nearly all of Tennessee and parts of Alabama, Georgia, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, and Virginia; it also manages the Tennessee River system. Because TVA is tax exempt, it's able to offer some of the lowest rates in the nation. The authority is preparing for deregulation and trying to cut its $25 billion debt.
