Generating Electricity
Since 1985, SGVMWD has generated electricity using the pressure that results from the gravity fed water flow in the pipeline. The 1 megawatt generator produces enough electricity for over 500 homes each year and it is delivered directly to the local grid. The revenues SGVMWD receives through the energy sales help to offset the District's operating costs.
