Cox Communications<\/a> has become the first Arizona Public Service Co. (APS) telecommunications business customer in APS\u2019s Green Power Partners Program<\/a>\u00a0(GPP).\u00a0 By purchasing solar renewable energy from the Green Power Partners Program, Cox will vastly decrease reliance on fossil fuels, achieving\u00a0100% renewable supply<\/u><\/strong>\u00a0for all our Cox facilities served by APS across Arizona.<\/p>\n

This partnership will contribute to the company\u2019s Cox Conserves goals of sustainability and carbon neutrality in Arizona.\u00a0 Specific Cox Conserves goals call for\u00a0zero waste to landfill by 2024, to be carbon and water neutral by 2034, while investing more than $100 million in sustainability and conservation projects.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Over the past decade we\u2019ve made meaningful progress in our journey to become a more sustainable company by achieving zero waste to landfill status in 2022, two years ahead of our target.\u00a0 This was primarily achieved by our employees reducing, reusing, refurbishing, and recycling resources in the workplace.\u00a0 And to date we have saved more than 299 million gallons of water since 2013, all while investing more than $100 million in local and national conservation projects.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are excited to be APS\u2019s first Green Power telecommunications customer. This is another giant step forward towards Cox\u2019s ambitious and achievable sustainability goals,\u201d said Susan Anable, Cox Phoenix vice president and market leader. \u00a0\u201cAs part of our commitment to the principals of Cox Conserves, we also support the work of so many local conservation and sustainability nonprofits such as the Nature Conservancy, McDowell Sonoran Conservancy, Arizona Sustainability Alliance and the OdySea Aquarium\u2019s Conserving AZ Waters exhibit. Recently, we invested more than $250,000 for the upcoming installation of solar panels\u00a0and\u00a0carbon\/solar educational programming at the Rosenzweig Boys & Girls Clubs of the Valley branch in Phoenix.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cBusinesses can make a positive impact on our state\u2019s future by powering their operations with energy produced from 100% clean resources,\u201d said Kerri Carnes, APS Director of Customer Technology. \u201cWe look forward to working with customers like Cox Communications to help them achieve their sustainability goals.<\/p>\n

Following the examples of sustainable farming practices established in the 1800s by Cox founder, Governor James M. Cox, the Cox Conserves program is committed to driving positive environmental change with more than $100 million invested in sustainability and conservation programs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
