About Alameda Municipal Power

In 1887, the City of Alameda paid $20,000 for the installation of 13 streetlights and a 90-kW generating station to power them. And with that, the oldest public electric utility west of the Mississippi was created.

Today, the City of Alameda is still in the power business and still a trendsetter. Now known as Alameda Municipal Power (AMP), we have maintained local control for more than a century, allowing us to reinvest in our community and provide value to Alameda residents and businesses.

AMP provides safe, reliable power at lower rates without sacrificing service. We are committed to investing in new and improved ways of doing business to manage costs, enhance service, support our community, and improve the environment.

While much has changed since 1887, one thing remains constant: our commitment to delivering safe and reliable electrical service to the residents and businesses of Alameda.

This is a dynamic time for electric utilities, and AMP's Engineering & Operations Division plays a key role in the design, construction, maintenance and operation of the transmission and distribution system.

The Operations team includes Line, Substations, Metering, and System Control. These groups work closely together and interface with other areas of the organization to support safe and reliable electric service every day.

As part of Engineering & Operations, you will work alongside employees who directly support the electric system and have an opportunity to contribute to the utility’s goals and continued success.
