This year, we have taken a fresh approach to telling our sustainability story. The opening section of our report features 2024 highlights that bring our sustainability commitment to life, followed by a technical section with additional detail on our management approaches, performance on key metrics and technical information that we know some of our stakeholders value. This report highlights some of Eversource’s most significant projects — each a step toward building a resilient and sustainable energy future for the communities in which we live and serve.

Advancing the Clean Energy Transition

We’re implementing groundbreaking initiatives to meet the challenges of decarbonization. Through innovative solutions and strategic grid enhancements, we’re enabling the integration of renewable energy resources and electrification. These efforts are building a more resilient energy system that supports solar, battery storage and electric vehicles.

Eversource is empowering customers to embrace clean energy and shaping the future of the grid to meet tomorrow's needs.

Empowering Communities

Eversource’s clean energy strategy considers the unique perspectives of the communities we serve. Programs such as rebates for heat pumps and renewable energy incentives, as well as infrastructure investments, are designed to make sustainable energy solutions accessible to all customers. We’re dedicated to supporting a collaborative and inclusive energy transition that works for everyone.

Investing in Reliable and Resilient Operations

We also remain steadfast on delivering safe, reliable service. We’re adopting advanced technologies to enhance efficiency and improve reliability, coupled with strategic vegetation management and robust emergency preparedness plans.

Doing our Part to Address Climate Change

As we’ve done for years, Eversource supports our states’ emission reduction goals and is also taking action to reduce our own emissions from operations. We have a long track record of leading by example, targeting key opportunities in operational areas such as fleet, facilities, line loss, and methane and sulfur hexafluoride leaks, and on this strong foundation, we’re now taking an important step to expand our greenhouse gas (GHG) target. In addition to maintaining a focus on reducing emissions from sources that we have the greatest control over, we’re excited to be broadening our outlook — in magnitude, scope and time frame — to reduce indirect emissions associated with our customers’ energy use.

Our new slate of GHG reduction targets demonstrate our commitment to doing our part where we can today while supporting longer-term state policies to transition our region to clean energy sources.

At Eversource, we see a future where energy is not just delivered but reimagined. Working closely with all stakeholders, we’re addressing the challenges of today while building a sustainable legacy for generations to come.
