Utilities

NATURAL GAS UTILITIES
Clean, efficient natural gas is one of the most popular sources of energy for business and industry. Louisiana currently produces just over one quarter of all US supplies. The states abundant reserves help ensure industry in Louisiana can count on ample supplies of this affordable energy.

Natural gas is currently available through The Port through Centerpoint Energy. 

WATER UTILITIES
Water and Sewer are provided to The Port by the City of Shreveport. To expand The Port's water capacity without putting critical demands on the area's potable water supply, The Port of Caddo-Bossier completed construction on a gray water line in 2011 that allows businesses to utilize gray water for their process whenever possible.

ELECTRIC
The Port is supported by two substations fed by 138kV Transmission lines. This Transmission system is loop fed and its current capacity is 175-200MW. SWEPCO has plans to bring in additional transmission lines within 5 years which will increase Port capacity with a 345kV line which will increase the capacity available to The Port by more than 200%. SWEPCO currently has 5,273 MW of capacity systemwide. The Port is served with 6 (expandable) distribution circuits from 4 sources, (2 from sources outside The Port). SWEPCO has capacity for the Port's growth for the foreseeable future in both transmission and distribution level customers.
