Glendale Water & Power (GWP) has earned a Reliable Public Power Provider (RP3)® designation from the American Public Power Association for providing reliable and safe electric service.
The RP3 three-year designation, recognizes public power utilities that demonstrate proficiency in four key disciplines: reliability, safety, workforce development, and system improvement.

This is the culmination of dedicated employees who truly care about the power of our community and remaining reliable. This designation is not a final destination.
