Serving the Miami Valley Since 1911

Since its formation in 1911, The Dayton Power and Light Company (DP&L) has been a proud partner with Dayton and its surrounding communities. The parent of DP&L is Dayton-headquartered DPL Inc., a regional energy company and one of the city's largest corporate citizens with more than $4 billion in assets.

Today, our 1,500 employees deliver electricity to more than 500,000 customers in a 6,000-square-mile area of west central Ohio. DPL generates electricity at 10 power plants, mainly located along the Ohio River, and has approximately 3,750 megawatts of total generating capacity.

DP&L and its employees have a long tradition of supporting the Dayton community. In 1985, the company established The Dayton Power and Light Company Foundation as a means of reinvesting in the communities we serve and contributing to the overall quality of life. The DP&L Foundation annually donates more than $1 million to a variety of civic, cultural, and youth organizations, with a particular emphasis on those that have an educational focus.
