About Us
Seven decades of energy for Meridian City
Founded in the age of gaslight, CivicPower now operates one of the world's largest energy delivery systems — electricity, natural gas, and district energy for the 3.2 million people of Meridian City and Harbor County.
By the Numbers
Our Story
From gaslight to net zero
Our company began in the 1950s lighting streets with gas lamps. Seven decades later, we deliver electricity across five districts and Harbor County, natural gas to millions of homes, and operate one of the largest district energy networks in the country — heating and cooling the towers of Northside.
Today the work is transformation: swapping fossil fuels for renewables, hardening the grid against a changing climate, and giving customers more control over when and how they use power. We invest billions each year in the reliability Meridian Cityers rarely have to think about — which is exactly the point.
How we hold ourselves accountable
- Governance — an independent board with deep energy, finance, and public-service experience guides our strategy.
- Ethics — every employee commits to our standards of business conduct, with anonymous reporting channels and zero retaliation.
- Sustainability — we publish an annual sustainability report covering safety, emissions, and operational performance.
- Regulation — our rates and service terms are reviewed and approved by the state utility regulator, in public proceedings.
What We Operate
Three interconnected systems, one promise: energy that's there when you reach for it.
Electric
Nearly 100,000 miles of cable — most of it underground — serving one of the densest load centers on Earth at 99.99% reliability.
Natural Gas
A distribution network serving millions of customers, with continuous leak surveying and a modernization program replacing older mains.
District Energy
One of the country's largest district energy networks, heating, cooling, and humidifying some of Northside's most iconic buildings.
