Sustainability

Context

PPA Energy understands Sustainability to mean that the energy sector needs to be environmentally sustainable at the same time as being economically sustainable.

Key pillars of sustainability include: energy efficiency , loss management, and customer participation in supply and demand management; integration of renewable energy and green energy technologies; awareness of, and management of, carbon emissions and carbon reduction, and in many regions of the world, the fundamental issue of providing affordable access to electrical energy to all social groups and to areas without access to public electricity supply.
