The Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) was established in 1933, as part of the New Deal programs of President Roosevelt. It provided electricity to seven states in the rural Tennessee river valley.

The TVA received some criticism and backlash from private energy providers. They resented the implementation of the program and argued that it represented a danger to private enterprise. The low rates that the government offered meant that private companies were going out of business. Several companies brought court cases against the company, but in 1939, the Supreme Court upheld the constitutionality of the Act.
