Client Story

City of Akron is Proving What Long-Term Partnership and Sustainability Leadership Can Achieve

Akron’s long-standing partnership with Dynegy continues to drive significant environmental impact. Through the City’s community electric aggregation program, Akron delivered more than 380 million kilowatt-hours of carbon-free electricity in 2023, equivalent to removing over 78,000 gasoline-powered vehicles from the road.

Since 2005, Akron has reduced community-wide carbon emissions by 29 percent and emissions from city operations by 54 percent. Efforts like the City’s community and municipal electric aggregation programs, modernization of the district energy system, integration of a unique anaerobic biodigestion process for wastewater treatment, and other initiatives have supported this progress. See the City’s Greenhouse Gas Inventory for more information.

"Akron is proving that sustainability and affordability can go hand in hand.”

Akron Mayor, Shammas Malik
