AMP Earns Credit Rating Upgrade from S&P Ratings
ALAMEDA, CA – On March 7, Alameda Municipal Power (AMP) earned a credit rating upgrade from Standard and Poor’s (S&P) Global Ratings based on the utility’s strong financial performance. "While investor-owned utilities such as PG&E have recently seen credit downgrades, AMP has earned a credit rating upgrade,” AMP General Manager Nicolas Procos said. “Not only does this upgrade speak to the hard work and dedication of our staff and the stewardship of the city of Alameda’s Public Utilities Board, it also is a strong endorsement to the community-owned business model for electric utilities.” The upgrade moves AMP’s S&P rating from A+ to AA-. S&P noted in a statement that AMP has a stable financial outlook with strong liquidity.
