{{#badges: CoalSwarm| Climate change}}The Orlando Utilities Commission (OUC) is a municipally owned public utility providing electric and water service to the citizens of Orlando, Florida and portions of adjacent unincorporated areas of Orange County, as well as St. Cloud, in Osceola County, Florida. OUC currently serves more than 200,000 customers.

Chartered in 1923, OUC is the second largest locally owned electric utility in Florida and the 16th largest in the nation. The company is governed by a five-member commission (including the Mayor of Orlando), which is responsible for all operating policies.

OUC owns the Curtis H. Stanton Energy Center and portions of other power plants in Florida. OUC is partial sponsor of the natural gas-fueled, combined-cycle electric-generating unit Stanton Energy Center, has a 6.08% stake in the St. Lucie Nuclear Power Plant near Fort Pierce, Florida, and is former owner of Indian River Plant north of Cocoa, Florida, now owned by Reliant Energy.
