Power Projects & Plans

Delivering the reliable electric service our customers need as efficiently and safely as possible is at the heart of what we do. Whether through long-range transmission lines or improving your power close to home, here are some of the ways we are working to make service to your home or business the best that it can be.

Tree Trimming

Fallen trees and branches are one of the most common causes of power outages. SWEPCO has a comprehensive program to manage trees and brush that grow around our lines and equipment – helping to provide safe, reliable electric service while keeping in mind the health and beauty of the trees where you live.
