NRG Energy, one of North America's most successful power generation companies, has raised the bar regarding an environmentally kinder approach to power generation.
In an effort to reduce their environmental footprint, NRG has implemented econrg, a progressive initiative tasked with the mandate of introducing environmentally friendlier business practices.
As described on the NRG website, their goal is to "meet the challenges of climate change, clean air and the protection of our natural resources." To help achieve this goal, NRG chose Intelex's web-based Environmental Management System to collect, track and report all environmental-related data, procedures and policies.
In addition to the implementation of Intelex's management software, NRG has also begun retrofitting existing power plants with technology to reduce emissions. "We are engaging in activities that protect and preserve the environment while encouraging changes in the daily lives of our employees."
Through programs like Control Climate Change (3C), an initiative comprised of 50 global business leaders including NRG Energy, corporations world-wide are making a sincere effort to reduce carbon emissions and address global warming.
