Building a Stronger Los Angeles
through Service, Innovation & Opportunity

Welcome to the Los Angeles Board of Water and Power Commissioners Website

The Los Angeles Board of Water and Power Commissioners oversees and sets policy for the nation’s largest municipal utility serving more than 4 million residents of Los Angeles, its businesses, and visitors. The Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP) supports the growth and vitality of the City of Los Angeles, its residents, businesses, and the communities it serves by providing safe, reliable, and cost-effective water and power in a customer-focused and environmentally responsible manner.

In October 2020, the Board made history as the first all-female board to lead LADWP.
