Spokane utility questions, answered

Who provides electricity and gas in Spokane?

In Spokane, both your electricity and your natural gas come from Avista, the region's investor-owned utility. That held true at every Spokane address we sampled. Because Washington doesn't offer retail energy choice, there's no shopping around for a cheaper supplier; Avista is the provider. To start service, contact Avista directly and confirm your address is inside its territory using the lookup.

Who handles water and sewer in Spokane?

Water and sewer in Spokane are the city-owned side of your utilities, both run by the City of Spokane. The case at every address we sampled inside the city. The city pulls its drinking water from wells sunk into the aquifer beneath the valley rather than a surface reservoir. When you move in, set up water and sewer through the City of Spokane; use the lookup first to confirm your address is on city service.

Can I choose my electricity provider in Spokane?

No. Washington doesn't have retail energy choice, so you can't shop competing suppliers the way you might in Texas or Ohio. In Spokane, Avista is your electric and gas utility, and the City of Spokane handles water and sewer. The provider is set by your address, not by you. The upside: regional rates lean on low-cost hydropower, which is a big reason Washington bills run among the nation's lowest. Just confirm your providers with the lookup.

Who is the electric company in Spokane?

Avista Utilities ID is Spokane's electric answer. It led 98% of the Spokane addresses we checked.

How do I set up all utilities for a Spokane address?

The fastest path: look up the address, then open accounts in the checklist order. Electric first when timing is tight.
