Exelon is the only Fortune 100 company in
its sector following stable growth and a strong commitment to
innovation and clean energy
Exelon employees from across the company, including utility
lineworkers, customer service representatives, power plant workers
and more, joined today to ring The Opening Bell® at the New York
Stock Exchange to commemorate the company’s status as a Fortune 100
company. Exelon President and CEO Chris Crane joined the group of
10 employees on the bell podium.
Exelon was named to the Fortune 100 earlier this year based on
2015 revenue gains, following strong growth across its business and
a commitment to investing in clean energy and next-generation
energy grid technology.
“This is an important milestone in Exelon’s history and a
reflection of our employees’ strong commitment to delivering
continued growth,” Crane said. “As the only Fortune 100 company in
our sector, we serve more utility customers and produce more
zero-carbon energy than any other company nationwide. We are
uniquely positioned to lead the transition to a clean energy future
by continuing to invest in technology and innovations that benefit
our customers and communities.”
Since being named to the Fortune 100, Exelon has continued to
grow. The company completed its merger with Pepco Holdings in March
and is investing $25 billion on critical infrastructure, smart grid
technology and other customer service improvements to benefit the
10 million electric and gas customers across Exelon’s six
utilities.
Exelon also is leading the transition to a clean energy future
by advocating for policies and market reforms that support
zero-carbon energy, including nuclear, solar, wind, hydro, battery
storage and other clean technologies. Exelon is also fostering a
culture of innovation and partnering with top universities,
national labs, government agencies, venture capitalists and private
equity firms to unleash new technology that has the potential to
transform the industry, spur clean energy options and provide
greater benefits to customers.
