Colorado Springs Utilities is a community-owned, not-for-profit utility serving Colorado Springs with electric, natural gas, water, and wastewater services. Operating for more than a century, it is the largest community-owned, not-for-profit, four-service utility in the nation. The organisation reinvests all revenue into infrastructure improvements rather than distributing profits to shareholders.
The utility operates across four distinct service domains: electric power distribution, natural gas distribution, water supply and treatment, and wastewater collection and treatment. Beyond core services, it manages utility infrastructure upgrades and modernisation projects, conservation programmes with rebates, and operates a Conservation & Environmental Center. Round-the-clock operations ensure maintenance and system reliability across its service territory.
Colorado Springs Utilities commits to providing safe, reliable, and competitively priced services whilst advancing sustainability for future generations. The organisation engages in advanced energy and water infrastructure projects and offers conservation programmes designed to help customers use resources wisely. Its not-for-profit structure and community ownership align operational decisions with long-term customer and regional interests rather than shareholder returns.
