PGW upgrades aim to trim a small slice of its climate emissions
Original: PGW upgrading infrastructure to cut a small fraction of its climate pollution
Philadelphia Gas Works is rolling out infrastructure upgrades intended to reduce a small fraction of the utility's climate pollution. The work targets emissions from the city-owned natural gas provider's system, though the utility acknowledges the improvements address only a minor share of its overall climate footprint. The modest scale of the projected cuts has drawn attention as Philadelphia weighs the company's longer-term role in the city's energy transition.
Why now: People are discussing the gap between the utility's announced climate action and the limited emissions reductions it is expected to deliver.
