Fuel Mix Report
Information for Our Customers
The Washington Department of Community, Trade, and Economic Development (“CTED”) conducts an annual survey of all electric utilities operating within the state in order to determine the generation source of the electric energy sold to the utilities’ respective retail customers. CTED uses this information to develop a statewide database and subsequently provides each electric utility with a “Fuel Mix Report” listing the fuel types utilized in providing their electric service.
