Lowering Our Carbon Footprint

Pike County Light & Power does many things to meet sustainable and low carbon emissions standards. The company projects it will reduce emissions significantly by replacing its old cast iron pipe with new plastic pipe. This will reduce leaks and increase safety.

Other strategies customers can use to help lower carbon emissions include increasing efficiencies through weatherization of homes and businesses and installation of high efficiency appliances.

We participate annually in a Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark, or GRESB assessment that scores our company compared to other similar businesses. According to the GRESB.com website, assessments capture information on ESG performance and sustainability best practices for real estate and infrastructure companies, funds, and assets worldwide and are guided by what are considered to be material issues in the sustainability performance of those assets.

The assessments are aligned with international reporting frameworks, such as GRI, PRI, SASB, DJSI, TCFD recommendations, the Paris Climate Agreement, UN SDGs, region and country specific disclosure guidelines. Our GRESB score for 2023 was 88/100.
