We're modernizing our systems to better serve you and our community.

• Where will our energy come from in the decades ahead? 
• How will we store and transmit that energy over long distances to better sync supply and demand, mitigating the need for new, expensive power plants? 
• As our society transitions away from fossil fuels, how will we meet the growing electricity demand? 
• How can we reduce water waste and conserve this precious resource?

These are big, complex challenges of our time. And while the solutions are not easy, the answers all have something in common: smart, modern technologies are helping transition to a more resilient, efficient, and sustainable electric grid.

We want to provide you with better service, build a more resilient community, reduce water waste, and create a cleaner energy future.

As a part of achieving these goals, we are upgrading our electric and water meters throughout the city of Eugene and eventually the McKenzie Valley.

• As of late 2024, about 98% of Eugene customers have smart electric meters and nearly 85% have smart water meters installed. 

• Across Eugene’s urban territory, smart meters have reduced the number of times that service trucks must roll out to customers by 90% since 2015. Learn more.

• Smart water meters helped EWEB customers prevent 170M+ gallons of water waste in 2024. Learn more.
