Sign up for eBilling and you could get a FREE tree!
When you sign up for eBilling, you're saving trees. Since you're saving trees, we'd like to give a tree to the first 300 customers who sign up, and help you know where it's best to plant. If you sign up for eBilling by May 21, you could receive a free tree.*

Strategically planted trees save energy by providing shade to keep your home cool in the summer. When planted properly, a single tree can save a homeowner up to 20 percent on energy costs.

Electric rates decrease again
At its April 25 meeting, City Council voted to decrease the electric cost adjustment  effective May 1. This equates to a typical residential electric reduction of $1.62 per month.

This rate decrease comes on the heels of a previous electric decrease that went into effect on March 1. As a nonprofit, community-owned utility, we pass changes in fuel costs - up or down - directly on to our customers.

We're proud to provide safe, high-quality water
 
We can proudly say we supply some of the best-tasting water in the country, as documented in our 2017 Water Quality Report.

About 80 percent of Colorado Springs' water comes from first-use, fresh snowmelt high in the Rocky Mountains. The Water Quality Report meticulously outlines what's in it and how we treat it.
