Clean Energy

As Arizona’s population and economy continue to grow at unprecedented levels, so does the state’s need for reliable electricity. As a result, we are updating our clean energy goal to an aspirational “carbon-neutral” approach by 2050.
We are committed to providing reliable power to customers at the lowest-cost possible while striving to lower carbon emissions over time. Our aspirational carbon-neutral approach means that, by 2050, for any greenhouse gas emissions still produced by our electricity generation resources, we aim to offset these emissions elsewhere.
A balanced and diverse energy mix will power Arizona’s remarkable growth and help serve our customers with reliable and cost-effective electricity. Our diverse energy portfolio includes:
- Clean, carbon-free energy from Palo Verde Generating Station – one of the largest nuclear plants and producers of clean energy in the country
- Renewable resources, including solar energy paired with battery energy storage
- Natural gas, which is critical to reliability and an important partner to the large quantity of renewable resources we’re adding to our system
- Energy efficiency and demand management programs that help customers reduce energy use
