Natural gas and the infrastructure that transports it are foundational to achieving a sustainable future where energy is clean, safe, reliable and affordable. With customers at the center of everything we do, we’re not only working to reach net zero by 2050, but to positively enrich the communities we serve while maintaining safety and maximizing reliability and resiliency. Building a sustainable energy future and helping people thrive go hand in hand. Across our supply chain, our company and our communities, we work to align sustainability efforts and responsibly manage our environmental and social impacts.
