We place great importance on environmental stewardship by focusing on serving as a strong partner as we build clean energy infrastructure projects while minimizing the overall environmental impact of our work. In 2022, we continued to broaden our capabilities and resources to address the industry’s expanding needs during the clean energy transformation. This past year, we substantially broadened our clean energy project portfolio delivering solutions that will reduce the overall impacts to the environment.
We also remain committed to monitoring our greenhouse gas emissions and strive to reduce them. In our previous sustainability report we disclosed our Scope One emissions and committed to reducing them by 15% on an intensity basis by 2032. This year, we expanded our focus into more environmental areas by providing our Scope Two emissions and metrics on other air emissions, water use, and electrical power usage. This report highlights these metrics, and others, while providing insight into our planned approach to reducing our overall impact on the environment. In the appendix of this report, you will find additional disclosures relevant to our efforts aligning with the frameworks set forth by the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) and Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD).

Our impact and influence on the environment are not lost on us. Therefore, as an industry-leading electrical construction contractor, we take a proactive approach to environmental stewardship, backed by partnerships, policies, and actions to help us operate responsibly.
It is our company policy that we comply with all applicable environmental regulations, statutes, and policies, which allows us to operate in a way to minimize and control environmental damage while protecting the health and safety of our employees and communities. Whenever possible, we responsibly source our materials, salvage/ reuse/recycle excess project materials, and seek to apply effective measures throughout our operations to minimize environmental impacts and reduce our carbon footprint.
MYR Group continues to contribute to causes that improve the communities where we live and work. We give nationally to large nonprofit organizations and locally by supporting hospitals/healthcare foundations, school districts, youth nonprofits, homeless shelters, food banks, and several other local charities. We believe in coming together for the greater good and stepping up to help our neighbors in need. We volunteer time and contribute funds to support meaningful charitable causes that protect, preserve, and enhance our society. Our electrical professionals have provided pro-bono services such as renovating and restoring power for local establishments that give back to the community and partnered with construction companies to donate labor and services to restore the electrical infrastructure of local safe homes and homeless shelters.
