Report Details KMI’s Commitment to the
Environment, Safety and Local Communities
Kinder Morgan, Inc. (NYSE: KMI) announced today the publication
of its first, stand-alone Environmental, Social and Governance
(ESG) report. This report details progress in key areas and
compares performance to prior years.
The report highlights the company’s continued success in
improving its environmental, health and safety metrics. Since 2007,
KMI has published updated performance metrics monthly on its
website. With a culture of safety and preparedness, the company’s
performance on environmental, health and safety measures
consistently outperforms industry averages, and continues to
improve.
The report also covers additional KMI social policies and
programs. The company believes that respecting its neighbors,
communities and governing bodies is instrumental in guiding how the
company conducts its business. In particular, it values the
diversity of culture and unique histories of Indigenous Peoples. In
2017, KMI published policies reflecting its ongoing commitment to
building trust, collaboration, communication and cooperation within
Indigenous communities affected by its construction and
operations.
KMI believes that strong governance and management systems are
important factors in the success of the business. The report
details how potential climate-related risks and opportunities are
addressed within the company. For more than 20 years, the company
has been committed to reducing methane emissions from its natural
gas pipeline assets. Over the past three years, emissions
reductions have totaled more than 5 million metric tons of carbon
dioxide equivalent (CO2e) emissions. The company continues to
develop and implement best practices in the area of methane
emission measurement and reduction by working collaboratively with
industry peers, agencies and other stakeholders.
