Our Climate Commitment

Decarbonization has been central to Emera’s strategy for more than 15 years.

And we have a great story to tell. Now, our Climate Commitment builds on our strong track record with our vision to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. We’ve also set clear carbon reduction goals along the way.

 

 

Since 2005 we’ve reduced CO2 emissions by 39% and coal use by 68%

By 2023 we’ll reduce our coal use by at least 80%

All while staying focused on enhancing reliability and never losing sight of affordability for our customers.
