“FPL Group has one of the lowest emissions profiles of any electric power company in the United States, and we are the country’s No. 1 producer of renewable energy from both wind and solar power. We’re extremely pleased to be included on this year’s Carbon Disclosure Leadership Index,” said FPL Group Chief Financial Officer Armando Pimentel.
Paul Dickinson, chief executive of the Carbon Disclosure Project, said: “Good corporate governance in respect of climate change disclosure will inevitably reap its rewards. As carbon regulation increases, those companies that have implemented climate change related strategies are clearly going to be in a far better position to meet the challenge of higher carbon prices than companies that have procrastinated. Good disclosure practices are synonymous with good management.”
