Public Comment Period for Pasadena Water and Power Draft Clean Energy Optimized Strategic Plan Now Open at EngagePWP.org

PASADENA, Calif. - As part of its continued commitment to community engagement, Pasadena Water and Power (PWP) is soliciting public comment on the draft Optimized Strategic Plan (OSP), which is Pasadena's roadmap to achieve the city's goal to source 100% carbon-free electricity by the end of 2030, while optimizing for affordability, rate equity, stability and electric reliability. PWP recently launched a new online hub, EngagePWP.org , designed to foster ongoing dialogue with customers about a variety of PWP initiatives including the OSP.

Through this effort and other outreach activities, PWP continues to explore ideas and shape future offerings based on community input. The online engagement hub provides a centralized space where residents and businesses can learn more about the OSP, review the draft, and provide comments. For customers who prefer to provide their comments verbally, the hub also includes available virtual appointments with PWP staff to discuss the plan and provide feedback. The public comment period will remain open through Monday, Oct. 27, 2025.

EngagePWP.org is part of a broader effort to ensure PWP programs continue to reflect the evolving needs and priorities of Pasadena's diverse community. In addition to the community input opportunities, this engagement hub will provide information regarding upcoming events, contact information and other helpful resources.

"The Optimized Strategic Plan is a crucial piece of Pasadena's clean energy future, and we encourage residents and businesses to be part of the process by visiting EngagePWP.org to help ensure our rates, programs, and incentives continue to reflect their needs and priorities." said PWP General Manager David Reyes.
