Improving Air Quality

Southern California continues to face serious air quality issues. Most of our area's emissions (80%) come from mobile sources such as cars, trucks and trains. The rest comes from stationary sources such as refineries, power plants and factories. We believe continued collaboration among Southern California stakeholders is essential to resolve these issues for a sustainable energy future.

Water Quality: Advanced Systems

Located in Redlands (CA), our Mountainview natural gas-fired generation facility helps to protect water quality with an advanced, environmentally friendly and efficient cooling system. It draws water from a mix of sources including reclaimed municipal water and contaminated groundwater. We boost efficiency by treating it onsite for re-use and recovering 75% to 80% of the water that would normally be discarded.

Revitalizing Coastal Wetlands & Marine Habitats

Along the coast of Southern California, native species are finding fertile homes in environmental projects designed to offset the adverse impact on marine life by the ocean-water cooling system at our San Onofre plant. The San Dieguito Wetlands Restoration Project revitalized 150 acres of coastal wetlands, creating a fish nursery and a refuge for migratory waterfowl and endangered species. Nearby, our 174.4-acre artificial giant kelp reef is thriving. As the nation’s first sustainable artificial kelp forest, it attracts countless species of coastal fish and invertebrates.

Managing Healthy Forests

We manage 20,000 acres of Sierra Nevada forestland near Shaver Lake and Dinkey Creek, east of Fresno (CA). Our efforts have restored conditions to their pre-1850 status and are helping wildlife populations – including bald eagles and spotted owls – to thrive. Our community-based approach to forest management includes consideration for community values and has led to a healthier forest and a safer community for everyone.
