At PG&E, we recognize that this is a critical time for climate change action—and to make collective progress towards stabilizing the climate. We’ve set ambitious climate goals to guide our work in helping to transition California to a decarbonized and more climate-resilient economy. This section highlights our progress towards our goal to achieve a net zero energy system in 2040, along with other milestones.
