About

Southeastern Power Administration (SEPA) is a federal Power Marketing Administration that markets hydroelectric electricity generated by U.S. Army Corps of Engineers reservoir projects across 12 southeastern and mid‑Atlantic states. SEPA’s core responsibilities include negotiating and administering power sale contracts, developing wholesale rates and repayment studies, and scheduling generation to meet contractual loads, all while delivering power at the lowest possible cost to its customers. Because SEPA does not own transmission assets, it partners with utility transmission providers to ensure reliable delivery of federal power. The agency’s focus on cost‑effective, reliable hydroelectric supply makes it a key player in the region’s energy market and an attractive workplace for professionals interested in power marketing, contract management, and energy economics.
