Clean Energy

We share the desire for cleaner sources of energy. We've built new power plants fired by clean-burning natural gas. We have increased the number of hydroelectric dams in our generating portfolio. We have entered a partnership with the developer of a wind farm in Pennsylvania. And, we have promoted and installed fuel cells that produce clean energy from hydrogen.

Our coal-fired power plants are cleaner today than they were yesterday, and will be cleaner tomorrow than they are today. We have reduced our emissions of key pollutants significantly, but more work remains to be done. We will continue to focus on greenhouse gas emissions that lead to global climate change, trace air emissions, groundwater contamination from natural compounds in coal ash and fine particulate emissions.
