Seattle City Light
 PROFILE
Seattle City Light keeps the lights on and the coffee grinders running by providing electricity to about 345,000 residential, commercial, industrial, and government customers in 131 sq. miles that include Seattle and areas to the immediate north and south. One of the US's largest municipally owned power companies, Seattle City Light owns 1,900 MW of hydroelectric capacity. It owns or contracts for about 80% of its generation and obtains most of the rest from the Bonneville Power Administration. Evolving from several neighborhood electric companies that began powering Seattle in 1886, the company was created in 1910 to power the city's streetlights.
