Our Sustainability Commitments
Our sustainability commitments provide a framework for PPL to grow and innovate in a responsible, reliable way that benefits customers, shareowners, employees and society as a whole.
Our Sustainability Reports
Our current sustainability programs, performance metrics and initiatives are presented annually in our sustainability report. Our report presents our views about the company’s direct and indirect impacts, risks, challenges and opportunities.
Our Climate Goal
We continue to take steps to minimize our impact on the environment and transform the way we generate electricity and incorporate renewable technology. To reconfirm this commitment, PPL has set a goal to reduce the company’s carbon dioxide emissions at least 80 percent from 2010 levels by 2050.
PPL also issued a scenario-based climate assessment, which describes the company’s approach to climate change and steps the company is taking to manage climate-related risks and capitalize on new opportunities.
