ESG Framework

SaskEnergy's approach to ESG

Our vision is to provide critical energy to support Saskatchewan. This means delivering safe, reliable and affordable energy to our customers — today and for years to come — while advancing our environmental, social and governance (ESG) performance.

ESG principles are integrated in our governance framework, our approach to risk management, and how we conduct our day-to-day operations. SaskEnergy’s commitment to environmental responsibility includes reducing our own emissions from operations while assisting our customers in minimizing their carbon footprint. Our relationships with customers, communities and Indigenous groups are key as we support economic prosperity for future generations. Our employees drive the success of our organization. We strive for a work environment where all ideas are valued, respected and welcomed.

Our 2022-23 Sustainability Report provides an overview of SaskEnergy’s continued progress on ESG principles. It also provides an outlook on our long-term goals and objectives.
 

Our ESG framework

SaskEnergy’s ESG framework includes four focus areas: Environment, Prosperity, Our People and Governance. 

Environment
We have long considered the impact of our own operations, as well as the impact of our customers’ activities, on the environment.
Prosperity
We support Saskatchewan’s economy by investing in the rural, urban and Indigenous communities where we live and work.
Our People
We take pride in our people. SaskEnergy's employees drive our success and play a pivotal role in our long-term corporate sustainability.
Governance
We promote ESG principles through the stewardship of our organization. This includes how we conduct our business, serve our communities, and our approach to managing risks.


Looking ahead

SaskEnergy focuses on balancing our emissions reduction efforts with our ability to provide affordable energy to customers. It is important that we continue to provide customers with access to low-cost energy sources, stable commodity rates, and delivery charges that are among the lowest in Canada.

Environmental responsibility is also important to us. We remain committed to reducing our emissions from operations and to assisting our customers in reducing their energy consumption, costs and end-use emissions. Reliability, safety, and ease of service also remain focus areas.

As we provide critical energy to support Saskatchewan, SaskEnergy will: 

  • progress on our emissions reduction goals

  • support economic prosperity

  • invest in our workforce to meet the province’s energy needs now and into the future

  • operate in the best interests of the public we serve.
