Subject: An Oregon Kind of Energy: Sharing New PGE Net Zero Greenhouse Gas Emissions Goal

Importance: Normal

Attachments: image002.png;

 

Hi Gerald,

Here in Oregon, we are experiencing the real-life impacts of climate change and recognize the urgent need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. To reflect this urgency and to meet our customers’ desire to be served with increasingly clean, renewable energy, today we announced a new goal to achieve companywide net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2040. To meet this goal, we will touch every part of our business: from the power we supply to our customers, to the vehicles we drive, to the materials we purchase, to how we operate our buildings.

Specifically, we know our customers and communities want to be served by clean energy, which is why we are also committing to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions associated with the power we serve customers by at least 80% below 2010 levels by 2030, plus an aspirational goal of zero greenhouse emissions for serving customers by 2040.

Along the way, we will continue to keep the essential electric service that our customers and communities rely upon reliable and affordable, today and into the future. We’re confident that, working together with our customers and communities, we can reduce emissions and continue building Oregon’s clean energy future. Learn more at portlandgeneral.com/climate. Please let me know if you have any questions.
