PUBLIC SERVICE ENTERPRISE GROUP, INC. Fossil Fuel Power Generation
Public Service Enterprise Group is based in the USA and supplies electricity and natural gas to customers, primarily in New Jersey. Evidence shows that electricity generated from oil and gas accounts from 15% of the company’s total revenue. However, the company is in the process of divesting from their fossil fuel assets and in 2021 they shut down their last coal-fired plant. The company now plans to focus on nuclear power and natural gas and has set a target of net-zero emissions by 2030. Therefore, the company is considered to be on a climate change pathway aligned with 1.5°C of global temperature rise.

EDP-ENERGIAS DE PORTUGAL SA Fossil Fuel Power Generation
EDP is a Portugal’s largest generator and distributor of electricity. Evidence shows that 12.5% of the company’s revenue was is generated from fossil fuels, including 5% from coal-fired plants and 7.5% from oil and gas. However, EDP have committed to being coal-free by 2025 and carbon neutral by 2030. The decision to shut down rather than offload their fossil fuel assets contrasts with many other energy companies who instead choose to sell up when faced with dropping profits or a need to improve their sustainability credentials. Therefore, the company is considered to be on a climate change pathway aligned with 1.5°C of global temperature rise.
