The company has also reduced carbon emissions associated with the electricity it provides to customers by 53% from 2005 levels. The Sustainability Report details the company\u2019s progress in transitioning to clean energy while maintaining reliable and affordable natural gas and electricity service, as well as the company\u2019s commitments to further strengthen communities and value the people that make up its workforce.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cXcel Energy is at the heart of our nation\u2019s clean energy transition,\u201d said Bob Frenzel, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Xcel Energy. \u201cGuided by our customers\u2019 priorities and enabled by rapidly changing technology, we\u2019re driving toward a clean energy future, bringing reliable, affordable, increasingly clean energy to millions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nXcel Energy was the first U.S. energy provider to set aggressive goals to reduce carbon emissions from the most significant ways customers use energy: for electricity, heating and transportation. In 2018, the company set a goal to provide customers with 100% carbon-free electricity by 2050 and reduce carbon emissions from its operations by 80% from 2005 levels by 2030.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe company has begun to implement its Colorado and Upper Midwest energy plans, which outline the new energy generation, transmission infrastructure, and other resources it will develop to meet its 2030 goal. Xcel Energy also plans to exit from coal by the end of 2030 if regulators approve its proposal to retire coal operations at Tolk Generating Station in Texas four years ahead of schedule. To support the reliability and resiliency of the grid as this transition continues, the company is helping to incubate and scale emerging technologies, including demonstration-scale projects in long-duration battery storage and clean hydrogen production. Xcel Energy also continues to develop new transmission lines and in 2022 received approval for Colorado\u2019s 560- to 650-mile Power Pathway project. The company has built more miles of transmission over the last 15 years than any other utility in the U.S.<\/p>\n<p>\nThrough the clean energy transition, the company is reducing other environmental impacts of its operations as well. Since 2005, Xcel Energy has reduced water consumption from owned and purchased energy generation by 39% and air emissions of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides from its power plants by about 80%.<\/p>\n<p><b>Providing customers with reliable and affordable service<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nXcel Energy continues to provide reliable, affordable energy to its customers. The company outperforms the industry reliability standard, restoring power to 94% of customers within 24 hours during major storm events, and maintains average residential electric bills 20% lower than the national average.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe company is also taking steps to save customers money through cost-effective wind and solar projects as well as efficiency programs to help them save energy. From 2017 to 2022, company-owned wind projects saved customers approximately $3 billion through avoided fuel costs and earned tax credits.<\/p>\n<p>\nAs high global natural gas prices drove up energy bills this past winter, the company expanded efforts to arrange payment plans with customers and connected more than 190,000 customers to assistance programs from both Xcel Energy and public sources in 2022. Those customers received a total of $216 million in energy assistance, a nearly 50% increase over 2021. Xcel Energy continues to work on policies that will enhance its ability to protect customers from future natural gas price volatility.<\/p>\n<p><b>Investing in people and communities<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nXcel Energy continues to build and maintain a talented workforce that matches the diversity of the communities it serves. The company has increased female representation on both the Xcel Energy Board of Directors and senior executive leadership team and has also increased the racial and ethnic diversity of its leadership.<\/p>\n<p>\nNew programs will help to ensure that all customers have opportunities to participate in the clean energy transition. The company\u2019s transportation vision, for example, includes programs that will make it easier and more affordable for customers to own and charge an electric vehicle and access electric transportation. Xcel Energy helped customers complete about 4.5 million energy efficiency projects in 2022, and nearly 290,000 customers participated in renewable choice programs.<\/p>\n<p>\nTogether with the Xcel Energy Foundation, employees and retirees, the company gave back to its communities, donating $15.6 million \u2014 up from $14.9 million the previous year \u2014 across the eight states it serves and contributing more than 74,000 volunteer hours for non-profit and community improvement projects. Meanwhile, Xcel Energy continues to partner with local economic development organizations to attract new business to communities, initiating 40 projects in 2022 with the combined potential to add $1.8 billion in investment and about 2,900 jobs. Xcel Energy spent $2.8 billion on goods and services with local businesses in 2022 and $1.2 billion with small and diverse businesses.<\/p>\n<p>\nRead the full <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.xcelenergy.com%2Fsustainability&amp;esheet=53422928&amp;newsitemid=20230620634833&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Sustainability+Report&amp;index=1&amp;md5=8aef36f50f4c1980e086c3db56b325ea\">Sustainability Report<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><b>About Xcel Energy<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nXcel Energy (NASDAQ: XEL) provides the energy that powers millions of homes and businesses across eight Western and Midwestern states.
