Our Plan for Carbon Neutrality
Achieving carbon neutrality requires a combination of strategic planning, stakeholder collaboration and bold near-term decision-making.

Our strategic path to carbon neutrality by 2030 includes:
- Utility and Procured Renewable Energy
Through partnership with local and national clean energy providers - Reduced Utilization
Through capital investments in clean-energy technology - Carbon Offsets and Renewable Energy Credits
- Additional Hard Energy Assets
Including solar, energy storage and other on-site energy sources
