Holy Cross Energy’s renewable energy efforts are moving faster than even utility officials had planned. That means it’s time for a more ambitious goal.
Holy Cross in 2018 announced the “Seventy70Thirty” plan. The plan’s intent was to source at least 70% of its power supply from clean and renewable sources by 2030, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions by at least 70% from 2014. That goal was to be met with no increases in power supply costs.
In a Monday virtual announcement, Holy Cross CEO Bryan Hannegan said the utility was on schedule to exceed those goals.
That progress led to Monday’s announcement of Holy Cross’s new “100X30” project, a new goal for the utility to receive 100% of its power from clean and renewable resources by 2030.
