How does Calpine know that the water and air quality at its sites are as clean as it says they are? Have any studies been done?
Calpine uses only highly qualified environmental and engineering contractors with significant credentials and direct experience. In the recent study, “Benchmarking Air Emissions of the 100 Largest Electric Generation Owners in the U.S.-2000,” Calpine was ranked No. 2 for its outstanding environmental record for the amount of noxious emissions for each megawatt of electricity produced. The study was released in 2002 by the Coalition for Environmentally Responsible Economies (CERES), a national coalition of environmental and investor groups, the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) and the utility, the Public Service Enterprise Group Inc. (PSEG).
