Silicon Valley Power is one of few public electric utilities in California with an upward trajectory of growth. Today, SVP owns, operates and participates in more than 1,200 MW of electric generating resources and serves a peak load of approximately 700 MW. SVP's expansion plan will double our system capacity over the next ten years.
