Environmental Challenges
- More frequent and severe weather events that may result in adverse physical effects on portions of the country’s gas infrastructure and could disrupt our supply chain and ultimately our operations
- Severe weather events could also cause physical damage to facilities, leading to reduced revenues, increased insurance premiums or increased operational costs
- Disruption of transportation systems could result in reduced operational efficiency and customer service interruption
- Chronic physical risks include long-term shifts in climate patterns resulting in new storm patterns or chronic increased temperatures, which could cause demand for gas as a heating fuel to decrease
Mitigation Strategies
- Regular risk assessments that integrate significant climate-related and compliance risks into our full enterprise risk management process
- Strategic plans to mitigate significant climate-related risks
- Developing early stage solar power projects to support cleaner sources of energy
- Pursuing early-stage development of energy transition technologies such as CCS and hydrogen
Supply Chain Management
Responsible Procurement
- Contractually require formal contractor safety standards that meet or exceed our safety standards
