Up and Down arrows will open main level menus and toggle through sub tier links. Enter and space open menus and escape closes them as well. Tab will move on to the next part of the site rather than go through menu items.

EEI Celebrates Earth Week

EEI Celebrates Earth Week

EEI and our member companies are proud to provide America’s resilient clean energy and to be leading the transformation of energy. Across the nation, we are working every day to get the energy we provide as clean as we can as fast as we can, while maintaining the reliability and affordability that our customers value.

For our industry, the path forward is clear—and the path forward is clean. Thanks largely to the leadership of EEI’s member companies, carbon emissions from the U.S. electric power sector are nearly 40 percent below 2005 levels. At the same time, 40 percent of our nation’s electricity now comes from clean, carbon-free sources, including nuclear energy, hydropower, wind, and solar energy.

In addition, dozens of EEI member companies have announced ambitious long-term carbon-reduction targets, including net-zero targets, showing the path forward. We are leading the world in reducing carbon emissions and are well-positioned to play a major role in the climate change solution.

This week, we are celebrating Earth Week – and Earth Day on April 22. To learn more about our industry’s clean energy vision:

  • Visit EEI’s Clean Energy and Climate Change webpage. Here you will find key facts on the clean energy transition, a map that links to EEI member companies’ clean energy commitments, and more facts that demonstrate that we are #Committed2Clean®.
  • Listen to the Electric Perspectives podcast episode, “Focusing on Clean Energy This Earth Day – and Every Day," featuring EEI Chairman and DTE Executive Chairman Gerry Anderson and Eric Grey, EEI’s vice president of government relations.
  • Visit the Clean Energy section of EEI’s Delivering the Future webpage to find stories about EEI member companies’ clean energy projects and programs.
  • Follow #Committed2Clean® on social media to watch the work that is happening every day to deliver resilient clean energy to customers.
