Our three main focuses for a sustainable future
A carbon neutral future by 2045
We're reducing carbon emissions, updating our energy mix to preserve our communities and enabling customers to be a part of the journey as well.
By using diverse energy and upgrading our grid, we're stronger and more flexible to demand and extreme weather.
When our energy is more reliable and sustainable, we reduce our costs (which means yours too).
Businesses are going green
KCI Airport now gets 100% of their energy from our Renewables Direct program. That means everything from runway lighting to baggage conveyors will be powered by wind. But they're not the only ones, companies like Hallmark, Nestle Purina and Boehringer Ingelheim partner with us to be 100% green too.
