As an Authority of the Commonwealth of Virginia, BVU is not like other utilities. Some publicly-owned utilities belong to specific municipalities, and investor-owned utilites are operated for profit. 

We're different. BVU Authority is locally focused and service driven. We exist for no other reason except to provide the best service at the lowest possible price for our customers - that's why we've worked to reduce electric rates five times in the last two years. As one of the lowest-cost providers of electricity in Virginia, we operate with our customers in mind. That means the revenues we collect are put back into your utility to help it run efficiently - instead of being returned to investors or owners. 

The employees of BVU Authority are your friends and neighbors. We have a deep respect and appreciation for the customer we serve. All customers have an interest in the workings of our organization. Both employees and customers benefit from this strong partnership. You can rely on BVU as your trusted energy partner. We're proud to be your local utility company.
