Matanuska Electric Association

The Alaska Power Association (APA) is the statewide trade association representing electric utilities that supply power to over half a million Alaskans, from Utqiagvik to Unalaska. With a mission to assist its members in delivering electric energy and related services at the best value, APA is committed to educating and addressing Alaska's unique energy needs through innovative solutions. Governed by a board of directors comprised of representatives from electric cooperatives and municipal utilities, more than 90 percent of Alaskans receive electricity from these publicly owned entities. APA actively explores emerging technologies in clean renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar, to meet the challenges posed by Alaska's distinctive conditions. Generated from the website
