We were an early leader in addressing climate change, investing billions in renewable 资源 and energy efficiency for homes and businesses. 现在, we are transforming our business to meet the current and future needs of our customers and to deliver on the objectives of Washington’s Clean Energy Transformation Act. Our objectives include:

Measuring greenhouse gases (GHG)

PSE has been calculating and disclosing its GHG emissions since 2002. 在早期, PSE selected the highest level of inventory and reporting protocols, developed by the World Resources Institute, to complete its carbon accounting. In 2010, PSE adopted the Environmental Protection Agency GHG reporting methodologies to align itself with the federal standards and to ensure consistency and accuracy in the carbon accounting process. PSE’s reporting to the Washington State Department of Ecology is in alignment with the Mandatory Greenhouse Gas Reporting requirements at WAC 173-441.

PSE provides links to download our recent annual GHG Inventory Reports on our 可持续性 webpage.
