The Empire District Electric Company's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp.

The Empire District Electric Company, headquartered in the US, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The company is a current subsidiary of Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp., which may influence its climate commitments and performance metrics. As of now, The Empire District Electric Company has not established any documented reduction targets or climate pledges. This lack of specific initiatives suggests that the company may be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy or may rely on the broader commitments of its parent organisation, Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp. Given the absence of direct emissions data and reduction targets, it is essential for The Empire District Electric Company to align its climate commitments with industry standards and best practices to enhance its sustainability profile and contribute to global climate goals.
