Hunting License
Alabama Power annually licenses more than 110,000 acres for hunting. Our licenses allow exclusive hunting rights for a particular club to hunt game on Alabama Power property.
Many of our hunting licenses have been held by clubs for many years and have satisfied customers. There is annual turnover and we add new properties to the license program from time to time. If you don't see a tract of land you are interested in today, please check back in the future.
Operation of the Program:
The hunting license is a 5-year license with annual payments. The operational year is from June 1 through May 31. Licensees are billed each May and payment is due June 1. At the end of the 5-year term, Alabama Power will review the tract of land for continuation in the program and renewal of the licensee by request.
How the Bid Program Works
The hunting license program has bid events in February and July. The program operates through a bid process, which allows Alabama Power to list properties to the public available for hunting. Persons wanting a license have from the first day of February or July through the last day of that month to submit a bid for properties from the list of available tracts.

The properties are listed by county and indicate the acreage plus the minimum bid per acre. A bid can be for the minimum amount listed or for any amount over the minimum. If more than one bidder submits the same bid, those bidders will be notified and allowed to submit a new bid. We ask bidders to submit their best bid initially. The bidding process closes at midnight on the last day of the month.
Once the bidding process closes, Alabama Power representatives review the bids and notify successful bidders. Should a successful bid be disqualified by Alabama Power or relinquished by the bidder, the remaining bids for that tract will be reviewed for the possibility of awarding the tract. This process will be closed by the last day of the subsequent month being March or August, respectively.
Parties wanting to view a listed property need to request access before entering Alabama Power owned property. A release agreement must be signed and submitted to Alabama Power before access can be granted. Possession of a property map or signed release agreement does not grant access to properties. Access will be granted by way of a document on official Alabama Power letterhead or via an email from a Leasing Representative in the Corporate Real Estate Department. For some tracts to be viewed, an Alabama Power representative may accompany a party to open gates or cross adjacent property. If multiple parties want to view the same tract, Alabama Power reserves the right to schedule group visits within a specified period of time.
