125: 'Traversing the Utility ESG Journey' with Christine Waller, Duquesne Light Company

The concept of ESG, or Environmental, Social, and Governance, oversight has become an increasingly common topic across economic sectors, especially utilities. The importance of ensuring that the utility integrates into its DNA the spirit of sustainability, both from an environmental perspective but also in terms of business practices, is clearer than ever before, but not every stakeholder knows exactly the best way to dive in. To get to the bottom of that with specific examples, this episode of the Energy Central Power Perspectives Podcast sees host Jason Price and producer Matt Chester welcome Christine Waller, Vice President of Communications & Corporate Responsibility at Duquesne Light Company. The discussion revolves around the recently released ESG report by Duquesne Light Company and its implications for the energy industry. Listen in as Christine shares how, as an investor-owned utility located in Pittsburgh, Duquesne Light Company's unique perspective sheds light on the challenges and opportunities faced by companies operating in regions with a rich industrial history.
