California Electric Companies
California is home to several dozen major electric companies that provide service to end users. The most famous of these are Pacific Gas & Electric Company, PacifiCorp, Silicon Valley Power, Bear Valley Electric Service. There are two types of electric companies: Investor-Owned Utilities (IOUs) and Publicly Owned Utilities (POUs).
California Public Utility Commission (CPUC) monitors privately owned utility companies. The CPUC also regulates natural gas, water, telecommunications, rail transit companies. The CPUC has controlled private electric companies for nearly a century and has helped ensure that residents receive reliable and affordable service.
