Behind the scenes

Behind the scenes: the work that powers your community

Behind every outlet or appliance in your home is a team leading projects to power your home for generations to come. Supplying the energy you need is just the first step. Keeping it flowing takes a whole lot more.

PSE maintains a diverse portfolio of generation resources to serve our customers. The Baker River Hydroelectric Project is PSE’s largest hydropower facility.
