Sustainable Electricity

The Canadian Electricity Association’s (CEA) Sustainable Electricity™ program, implemented under the strategic guidance of its board of directors, was launched on February 19, 2009 as a response to the challenge of creating a sustainable tomorrow.

Addressing the three components of sustainability—environment, society, and the economy—the program enables the electricity industry to take a holistic approach to managing its impact and securing a collective energy future.

The foundational elements of the program

1. All Corporate Utility Members must agree and adhere to the Sustainable Development – Corporate Responsibility Policy
2. All Corporate Utility Members must report on their Sustainable Electricity key performance indicators, which are synthesized in an annual report
3. Each utility must undergo independent external verification of its sustainability performance.
4. A Public Advisory Panel provides feedback on the members’ sustainability performance
