Serving 1.1 million customers over 2,000 square miles in southern Ontario, Alectra Utilities is the largest municipally-owned utility in Ontario, Canada.
Alectra Utilities is aggressively pursuing 2050 net-zero goals, and has leveraged Copperleaf® since 2014 to embed climate resilience considerations across its business—making sustainability as ubiquitous and central to its operations as safety, affordability, and reliability. Alectra Utilities uses the Copperleaf Decision Analytics Solution to convey the urgency of climate resilience to all stakeholders, including regulators, investors, customers, and its own employees.
By expanding its value framework to consider impact to environment and community, Alectra Utilities has gained insight into not only the benefits and risks associated with pursuing a specific investment, but also the lost opportunity cost if an investment isn’t pursued.
Alectra Utilities has been recognized by ClimateWise for surpassing its greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction target, decreasing emissions by 23% from its 2016 baseline, and demonstrating progress toward its goal of a 38% decrease by 2025.
