Coal-Free L.A.: Accelerating Transition to 100% Clean Energy

Los Angeles has achieved a historic milestone on our path to a carbon-free energy future—ending the use of coal in the City’s power supply. Mayor Karen Bass recently joined LADWP CEO and Chief Engineer Janisse Quiñones to announce that in November, the City received its last coal-fueled energy from the Intermountain Power Project in Utah. This achievement marks a pivotal step in the City’s decades-long commitment to environmental sustainability and climate leadership.

Beware of Scams Around the Holidays

LADWP customers are reminded to stay vigilant this month, as utility scams often increase during the holiday season. Don’t let the busyness of the season distract you from spotting impostors who call and threaten service disconnection. LADWP never demands phone payments with a live representative. Scammers use pressure tactics to urge you to act quickly, so remember to pause, verify information, and avoid suspicious requests.
