Water is vital for electricity production and various processes, notably equipment cooling. While the majority of our power generation relies on water, we aim to minimize consumption. Most water is returned to its source, with less than 3% lost to evaporation from cooling and flue gas scrubbing. We expect reduced water use with the addition of water-independent wind and solar assets, coupled with the retirement of fossil fuel generation.
Threats on Electricity Grid:
- Frequent Droughts
- Changing Rainfall patterns
- Hurricanes- Coastal areas
- Unusual Snow in Texas
- Heat waves
Society
Sustainability isn’t just about policies; it’s about a commitment to nurturing the potential, dignity, and happiness of every individual in the workplace. When we invest in our people’s growth, well-being, and sense of belonging, we sow the seeds of success, innovation, and a brighter future for all.
