b'Carbon Reduction GoalsEPE has been a leader in low carbon generation and must remain so moving forward. After a marked decrease in our carbon emissions resulting from our divestiture of coal assets in 2016, EPEs carbon footprint has remained relatively level. To further achieve reductions from our carbon profile, EPE has established the following goals:On a rate per megawatt hour (MWh) of load served, EPE is committed to reduce our carbon footprint:25% below 2015 levels by 2025 40% below 2015 levels by 2035The following strategies drive our carbon reduction efforts: By 2023, expand EPEs Resource Portfolio to include the addition of utility scale solar, battery storage,and more efficient natural gas generation resources; Continuously pursue additional renewable resources to enhance fuel diversity; Concurrently plan retirements of less efficient fossil fuel generating units; Substitute high global warming potential products from within utility operations; and Systematically electrify EPEs vehicle fleet.Introduction'
