The American Public Power Association (APPA) has recognized College Station Utilities for its high level of reliability while providing safe service while also focusing on future improvements.

College Station Utilities is one of only 60 utility companies in the entire country that has earned this Reliable Public Power Provider or RP3 recognition from APPA. This is also only the fourth time this award has been given.

"We're thrilled to join the ranks of RP3 designees around the country. This recognition is a testament to the dedication of CSU employees and the support given to CSU by the City Council. Prior to 2009, there were no utilities in the state of Texas that had received the designation. College Station is deeply committed to both providing reliable, affordable power to its customers and providing safety training to its employees," said David Massey, Director of Electric Utilities.

APPA is based in Washington, D.C. and represents more than 2,000 not-for-profit, community and state owned electric utilities.
