Report highlights role of nuclear fleet in achieving greenhouse gas emissions goals
As part of Exelon’s commitment to keeping the public informed of its performance in the areas of economic, environmental and social sustainability, the company today announced that it has released its 2013 corporate sustainability report.
“We’re proud of the progress we’ve made toward our sustainability goals and remain dedicated to creating value for customers, shareholders, communities and employees,” said Chris Crane, Exelon’s president and CEO. “In addition, we will continue to advocate for market rules and policies that will help shape a reliable, clean and sustainable energy future.”
The report presents a comprehensive record of Exelon’s sustainability performance in 2013. Among the highlights, Exelon:
The report also presents Exelon’s achievement, seven years early, of its Exelon 2020 goal to eliminate 17.5 million metric tons of GHG emissions in a year by 2020. Through operational emissions reductions, customer energy efficiency programs and introducing more clean energy, Exelon surpassed its goal, reducing or avoiding more than 18 million metric tons of GHG emissions in 2013.
Exelon’s sustainability performance owes much to its industry-leading fleet of nuclear power plants, which play an important role in the company’s low emissions profile and support national GHG emission goals. As detailed in the report, Exelon’s nuclear fleet is one of the most efficient in the world, and removing the reliable, clean energy it produces from the U.S. energy mix would jeopardize the nation’s ability to meet its goal of reducing GHG emissions by 17 percent by 2020.
In recognition of Exelon’s sustainability performance, the company has been named to the North America Dow Jones Sustainability Index for eight consecutive years. The company was also the only U.S. utility to be included in CDP’s 2013 Global 500 Climate Disclosure Leadership Index and Climate Performance Leadership Index.
In addition to the interactive report on Exelon’s website, a downloadable PDF of the report is available here.
