PSE&G recently launched the GridSmart Battery Program, a pilot program that helps residential electric customers offset the cost of purchasing and installing qualifying home battery energy storage systems.
Faced with the rapid evolution of generation, transmission and distribution technology, utilities are poised to undergo their most visible transformation in more than a century. By actively pursuing grid modernization efforts now — deploying smart devices, predictive analytics and active network management strategies — they can overcome the pitfalls of aging infrastructure assets and meet rising customer demand for clean energy, reliability and a lowered carbon footprint.

On Tuesday of last week, both CDP and Corporate Knights announced the results of their 2018 assessment of thousands of global companies in the areas of climate change (CDP) and the broader topic of sustainability (Corporate Knights). For 2018, Cisco again made CDP’s “A-List,” along with 125 other companies out of almost 7,000 that reported carbon data. Cisco has reported to CDP every year of its existence, receiving more awards from CDP for our climate change submittals than any other company. We’ve included a table in our 2018 CSR Report (p. 124) summarizing our results.
Las Vegas Sands was recently recognized on the Climate Change and Water A List by CDP, the international nonprofit environmental disclosure platform. The company has participated in CDP disclosure since 2012, beginning with reporting on climate change initiatives and performance. The disclosure put transparency to our environmental performance, relying on a structured well-recognized framework. We have chosen CDP platform because it is the best for carbon disclosures and its questionnaire offers guidance and ideas on how to adjust our measurements, goals, disclosures and new initiatives for upcoming years.
