Meeting the environmental challenge
We are developing solutions to our industry’s environmental challenges.
We are determined to continuously improve our environmental perform-
ance. We must do more than simply comply with environmental laws.
We are affirmatively looking for opportunities to address both climate
change and the consequences of our national over-reliance on fossil fuels.
Even now we are working on a resource plan that will enable us to maxi-
mize our existing resources while developing and deploying a portfolio
of alternative energy sources for the future.
But there is no single solution to the technological and economic chal-
lenges we face. We will explore all viable options, such as natural gas,
energy efficiency, renewable energy, emerging clean coal technologies
and new nuclear energy. We are determined to meet the future energy
needs of our customers reliably, affordably, and consistently with good
environmental practice.
