Electric utility companies
Electric utility companies are organizations that generate, transmit, and distribute electricity to homes and businesses. They operate power plants that produce electricity, which is then delivered through a network of power lines and substations. Utilities ensure a reliable supply of electricity and maintain the infrastructure needed for its delivery. Customers pay for the electricity they use, and these companies often provide additional services, such as renewable energy options and energy efficiency programs. Regulation varies by region, ensuring that rates are fair and that the supply remains stable while promoting environmental sustainability.
