Sustainability at Fortis

2020 marks 50 years of celebrating Earth Day and the theme for this year is “Climate Action”. Earth Day has helped shine a spotlight on the importance of protecting our planet for current and future generations.

Technological advances and the decreasing cost of renewable generation are driving the integration of sustainable energy sources in the Turks and Caicos Islands.

We support the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals to ensure a better and more sustainable future for all.

We are seeing the shift to a lower-carbon economy really take hold at our Arizona utility, Tucson Electric Power.

The utility has placed 12 new direct current fast charge ("DCFC") stations at strategic locations throughout its service territory.

We are taking actions to tackle the most pressing global sustainability issues.

Fortis is among the Best 50 Corporate Citizens in Canada - #24 out of 242 Canadian companies with revenues over $1 billion evaluated on a set of ESG indicators, and #1 in terms of having the largest three-year carbon emissions reduction.

Our plan is to continually take advantage of opportunities to reduce the overall carbon footprint of operations because we know this will have the greatest positive effect on the environment, reduce our overall risk profile and it’s the right thing to do.

We are an energy delivery company.

A partnership between FortisAlberta and Red Deer College (RDC) was recently established to promote initiatives aimed at advancing a sustainable and resilient energy future.
