Each September, leaders across the world advocate for action to address urgent climate issues during Climate Week.
The World Economic Forum's Sustainable Development Impact Summit virtual this year aims to spur sustainability initiatives across borders and sectors. Sempra Energy is proud to participate in this important global dialogue and lead North American utilities and energy infrastructure companies on sustainability issues.
In his opening speech, Klaus Schwab, founder and chairman of the World Economic Forum, said: 'Corporations are so important to addressing all the issues which we face.'
At Sempra Energy, we couldn't agree more. This week, and every week, Sempra Energy acknowledges we have a leading role to play.
Since 1998, our leadership in sustainability has been informed by ambitious goals and policies rooted in California utility markets. Over decades we've seen that a commitment to sustainable growth can deliver long-term value. This experience and capability sets us apart from our peers. Sempra Energy is currently the only U.S. utility company listed on the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index.
'Across our family of companies, we are adopting sustainable practices that are aligned with each company's strategy,' said Lisa Alexander, chief sustainability officer for Sempra Energy. 'Our sustainability practices are driven by a multi-stakeholder view that incorporates feedback from investors, consumers, employees and experts to identify opportunities for Sempra Energy to help lead the global energy transition while creating long-term sustainable value for all stakeholders.'
Sempra Energy's 12th corporate sustainability report outlines four goals and key performance indicators to drive long-term sustainable value through environmental, social and governance (ESG) principles:
