As the third largest electric utility in Canada, BC Hydro serves customers in an area containing over 94% of British Columbia's population.

BC Hydro endeavours to provide energy solutions to its customers in an environmentally and socially responsible way by balancing British Columbians' energy needs with the concerns of the environment.

Through the efficient and reliable supply of electricity, BC Hydro supports the development of British Columbia and has constructed a world-class integrated hydroelectric system. Due to this efficient, reliable system, British Columbians enjoy some of the lowest electricity rates in North America.

BC Hydro's primary business activities are the generation and distribution of electricity. For years the Transmission of that electricity has been facilitated by the BC Transmission Corporation on behalf of BC Hydro and other power providers in B.C.

The new Clean Energy Act  consolidated BC Hydro and BC Transmission Corporation, as of July 5, 2010,  to provide a single entity that will plan and deliver the clean energy required to meet British ColumbiaÂ’s growing demand for electricity while fostering job creation throughout the province and helping reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
