Utilities in Greater Phoenix

Power

The region is served by two primary electric utilities - Arizona Public Service (APS) and Salt River Project (SRP), both recognized by J.D. Power and Associates as reliable providers in the Southwest.

APS and SRP continue investing billions of dollars to upgrade and expand their electric systems to sustain highly reliable service in one of the nation's fastest-growing regions. The utilities also work closely with businesses to improve efficiency, capitalize on new technology and reduce energy costs.


Telecommunications

Geographic location, excellent satellite communication conditions and a favorable regulatory climate prove advantageous for information-processing activities.

  • Cox Communications’ array of telecommunication products makes it the fifth-largest multiple systems operator in the U.S.
  • Qwest Communications’ significant investments ensure uninterrupted transmission flow and position Greater Phoenix within the top five regional fiber-optic deployments in the U.S.

Natural gas

Southwest Gas is the regional service provider. The company added 914,000 customers in 2006, maintaining its status as one of the fastest-growing natural gas distribution companies in the nation.
