Our Commitment

Hoosier Energy’s unique mission is rooted in the cooperative principles to serve and pursue innovative solutions that improve the quality of life for our 18 member systems and the communities they represent. In today’s energy climate, that means prioritizing environmental, social and governance (ESG) initiatives. Hoosier Energy is building an energy ecosystem that prioritizes reliable, affordable and sustainable solutions while incorporating technology innovation and strong partnerships to create value for all member cooperatives.

Hoosier Energy’s ESG strategy is driven primarily by the needs of our key stakeholders. We place equal emphasis on each element of ESG, and we have the data to prove it, with reporting standards aligned with the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI)and Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB). As the energy industry evolves, we intend to adapt our approach and refine our portfolio to best suit our members and their strategic priorities.

ESG At a Glance

From the board room to the field, Hoosier Energy is committed to operational excellence, superior value, financial discipline and responsible environmental stewardship. Our approach to ESG aligns seamlessly with our broader mission and values. Our ESG strategy incorporates the following principles:

Maintaining a Member-Owner Focus

As champions of the cooperative model, Hoosier Energy seeks to advance our members and the communities they serve. That means prioritizing reliability, affordability and the innovative energy solutions our stakeholders expect. Each member cooperative is founded upon democratic values; Hoosier Energy is no different. We’re proud to uphold the democratic process of a one member, one vote election of our members to represent them at Hoosier.

Responsibly Managing the Energy Transition

With all elements of energy production and distribution, Hoosier Energy is committed to responsible decision making, investment in critical infrastructure and optimizing its generation portfolio. We’re committed to supporting the transition to a cleaner grid while balancing our commitment to enhance reliability and deliver affordable rates.

Driving Superior Value for Member-Systems and Customers

Strong corporate governance and thought leadership serve as the foundation for our commitment to ESG. We operate with the highest level of integrity. Our business remains rooted in helping all employees, members and stakeholders build a better tomorrow.
