For 130 years, we’ve been powering our community and helping connect Oregonians to what matters most to them. Today, we’re focused on delivering energy that is safe, clean, reliable, affordable and secure.
Our world and our industry are faced with new and exciting challenges driven by evolving technology, changing customer expectations and a shared desire for a clean energy future. Every day, we take new steps that get us closer to the energy transformation we want to see in Oregon.
