BC Hydro is British Columbia's provincial Crown corporation responsible for generating and distributing electricity to most of the province. The utility produces approximately 95% of its electricity from hydroelectric dams, making BC's grid one of the cleanest in North America. Major facilities include the massive W.A.C. Bennett Dam and Peace Canyon Dam in northeastern BC, and dams on the Columbia River. BC Hydro serves over four million customers. Recent major projects like the Site C dam have generated controversy over costs, environmental impacts, and treatment of Indigenous communities. As a Crown corporation, BC Hydro's operations affect provincial finances and electricity rates are politically sensitive.
