Projects


For more than a century, EWEB has planned, built, and maintained the systems that deliver safe, reliable, and environmentally responsible power and water to Eugene homes and businesses—approximately 8.5 billion gallons of drinking water and 2.4 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity every year.

Investments made with your rates and under the leadership of your elected Board of Commissioners have allowed EWEB to deliver positive results for our customers and community, including:

  • One of the cleanest power portfolios in the nation, with 90% of our power coming from carbon-free resources
  • A proactive drinking water source protection program that for decades has maintained exceptional water quality in the McKenzie River
  • Development of emergency water stations and other infrastructure improvements to maintain high reliability, reduce storm-related outages, and prepare for emergencies
  • Energy-saving incentives, assistance programs for low-income customers, school grants and other programs to support quality of life in our community

Looking ahead, we're focused on outcomes that are important to our customers and community: providing you with better service, building a more resilient community, reducing outage freqeuency and response times, and creating a cleaner energy future.

Approximately 11 cents from every dollar in your EWEB bill goes to rehabilitating, replacing or installing new infrastructure, including the following major projects.
