Today, SVP owns, operates, and participates in more than 2,000 MW of electric generating resources delivering 4,800 GWh of electricity. SVP is growing due to data center expansion, high density developments and electrification initiatives. SVP's peak load will be increasing from 700 MW to 1300 MW in the next 5-10 years.
