The Denny Substation will serve businesses and residents in the commercial areas and residential neighborhoods throughout our service territory, as well as alleviate the distribution congestion in the areas of South Lake Union, Cascade, Denny Triangle, Uptown, Belltown and First Hill. It will provide the higher level of reliability and electrical load density needed by our major medical centers, bio-tech research facilities, and high tech industries, and by current and future manufacturing and innovative entrepreneurial industries.

Update Your Account Information
It's part of our ongoing efforts to improve customer service. Seattle City Light is enhancing communications for reporting outages and to receive information about outages. We need YOUR help! Many customers have had a City Light account for years and it's likely that your account information hasn't been updated for some time. Also, many of our customers now use a cellular telephone as their only phone service and we might not have that number in our system. Some of you have told us you'd like to get an e-mail when there's an outage because you can receive them on your cell phone. Please help us stay in touch by updating your contact information.

Purchase YOUR 2013 Shrinking Bigfoot calendar and help support Project Share! |
|
When it comes to energy use - a big footprint is a big problem. Seattle City Light asked students in grades 3 to 6 to show others how they can save energy and reduce their carbon footprint by sending in original artwork for City Light's first annual Calendar Contest. Students all throughout our service territory participated and 13 winning energy-saving tips were chosen by a panel of judges. The student artwork was used to create a 2013 calendar that the utility will sell to support Project Share, the utility's emergency fund. Purchase your very own 2013 Shrinking Bigfoot calendar for only $10 -- all proceeds go to Project Share, a utility assistance program that provides one-time assistance to people who need help with their electric utility bill. You can save energy, save money, AND help make someone's winter more comfortable. *You can also purchase the calendar in-person at Seattle City Light's North and South Service Centers or on the 42nd floor of the Seattle Municipal Tower. |
| All calendar proceeds help customers that may need financial assistance with their utility bills. See Project Share for more information. |
