About GWP

About Us

With a heritage that spans a century, Glendale Water & Power (GWP) is a municipal utility that serves the citizens and community of Glendale, California including over 35,000 water and 88,000 electric customers. Glendale Water & Power's vision is to provide our customers with reliable and sustainable water and power services that are cost effective and innovative. Glendale Water & Power helps our residents and businesses become wise stewards of the planet's natural resources and to wisely manage energy costs at home and at work through our 29 Community Programs, Residential Water and Energy Efficiency Programs, and Business Programs.

Glendale Water & Power is currently upgrading 120,000 electric and water meters with new Smart Meters. Smart Meters are the utility's first step to the Smart Grid, a technology aimed at modernizing its technology and systems infrastructure to enhance reliability and manage costs for citizens while providing an infrastructure foundation that supports future growth. Our move to the Smart grid will provide real-time usage data to customers, helping them conserve and be more energy and water efficient and provide GWP with the tools to provide more competitive prices, demand reduction programs and make the way for acquiring more renewable resources.
