Charitable contributions are funded entirely by shareholder dollars, not by customers.
A clean energy future starts with clean electricity. At SCE, we’re charting a path toward an 80% carbon-free electricity supply by 2030, supported by energy storage. At Edison Energy,* we’re helping the largest energy users meet their renewable energy and sustainability goals.
SCE is a national leader in clean energy and delivers power with only half of the GHG emissions per unit of electricity compared to the estimated U.S. average. In 2018, 46% of electricity that SCE delivered to customers came from carbon-free resources,1 more than halfway to the 80% we estimate is needed by 2030 to meet California’s climate change goals.
At Edison International, our vision is to lead the transformation of the electric power industry toward a clean energy future. Through our subsidiaries, we distribute and generate electric power, as well as provide energy services and technologies, including renewable energy. Headquartered in Rosemead, California, Edison International is the parent company of Southern California Edison (SCE), one of the nation’s largest electric utilities.
