City of Corpus Christi
Leading-edge energy contract provides new trees in Corpus Christi
TXU Energy Teams Up to Launch New Plan
Located on the Texas Gulf Coast, the City of Corpus Christi is home to the nation’s fifth largest port. This thriving community is Texas’ eighth most populous city and third largest in land area.
Led by Mayor Paulette Guajardo, the City is in the midst of a new initiative to increase its urban tree canopy. TXU Energy, in partnership with the Texas Trees Foundation, was proud to join the mission and helped launch a new plan to plant hundreds of trees across the city.
Corpus Christi’s leading-edge contract with TXU Energy provides nearly $300,000 for 400 new trees through a donation from TXU Energy and TXU Greenback dollars. These funds will be used over five years to plant new trees and increase green space in City parks and other shared space.
