OUC Leads Way on Environmental Front

At OUC, we understand that as a company and a community there is no greater commitment we share than caring for our environment. Clean lakes and rivers, pure air and clear skies make our region the envy of many. That’s why for more than 80 years, OUC has been one of Central Florida’s leading environmental stewards.

OUC’s fleet of power generation plants have been built with the most environment friendly technologies available at the time of construction. From our successful landfill gas partnership to innovative renewable energy programs, OUC continues to fund a variety of environmental initiatives. And more are on the way.

That’s why during the next few months we will showcase some of our existing “green” programs, as well as introduce some exciting new projects. Look for information with your monthly bills and on our Web site, www.ouc.com/green.
