America’s Electric Companies are Leading on Clean Energy

The United States investor-owned electric companies are committed to getting the energy they provide as clean as they can as fast as they can, while keeping customer reliability and affordability front and center as always. Overall, carbon emissions from the electric power sector are at their lowest level since 1978—and continue to fall.

Electric companies are committed to continuing to reduce carbon emissions in our sector and to helping other sectors—particularly the transportation and industrial sectors—transition to clean, efficient electric energy. This is just the start. With investments in new technologies and the right policies in place, we can do even more to build a cleaner, stronger economy together.
