Expanding Our Use of Renewable Resources

Renewable sources of power play an important role on our electric system. At the end of 2012, about 17 percent of our companywide power supply came from wind, solar, hydro and biomass resources.

These resources work to meet our customers’ energy needs by:

  • Diversifying our energy portfolio so we are not too dependent on any one power source
  • Providing energy at a fixed cost without being subject to changes in fuel prices, which can be the case with power from coal and natural gas
  • Producing clean power that helps us meet new, tougher environmental requirements, as well as renewable energy standards in the states we serve
