Hydroelectric power
Low-cost hydropower is an important component of our current power portfolio because it is dispatchable (within operating constraints) and is a renewable resource. We own and operate two hydropower projects in western Washington: Baker River and Snoqualmie Falls. We also buy a substantial amount of hydroelectric power, much of it from central Washington public utility districts with large Columbia River dams.
