About Electric and Gas Utilities
Electric utilities and gas utilities supply electric power and/or natural gas, or connect lines to industrial, commercial, and residential customers. They perform a variety of power generation, transmission and distribution activities. For electric utilities, power generation is the process of converting non-electrical energy such as chemical combustion, nuclear fission, flowing water, wind, or solar energy into electricity. Power transmission is the delivery of electricity from power plants to electrical substations, and then to medium-voltage power lines and pole-mounted transformers. Power distribution is the delivery of this generated and transmitted electricity to the industrial, commercial and residential customers that electric and gas utilities serve.
