What are the mission and purpose of First Gen?
Our Mission
We commit to forging collaborative pathways for a decarbonized and regenerative future.
Our Purpose
We recognize that our planet’s life support systems and social institutions are now at a breaking point. Unbridled consumption and primacy of bottom-line growth are at the root of the climate crisis, our alienation from nature, and the profound social and economic divisions, that have become existential threats to humanity today.Overcoming all of these challenges will require paradigm shifts in the ways that we think, live, and do business. It is now clear that pursuing sustainability that seeks only to do less harm is no longer good enough.
Instead, we need to create symbiotic, mutually beneficial relationships with nature and society that benefit more than just shareholders. Businesses today must urgently become a regenerative force that elevates everything that they touch – customers, employees, suppliers, contractors, the environment, communities, and investors.
The transformation cannot be done by entities working alone. We are mindful that we exist within highly diverse and nested systems, and that we must all play unique, reciprocal, and synchronized roles in a world that needs to be healed.
Our collective success will be measured by how quickly we can decouple economic and social prosperity from the destruction of our planet’s life support systems.
We choose this path because it is the only way to a destination where everyone has the opportunity to thrive and prosper on a healthy planet. We choose this path because we believe it is the only way to create lasting value for all stakeholders and not just shareholders. We choose this path because it is inseparable from the Lopez Values that have, and always will, define us.
Our Chosen Path
We choose to harness only those energy sources that allow us to meet the needs of the present without harming the ability of future generations to meet theirs.With a deep understanding of the evolving needs of our customers, we will deliver resilient and compelling energy solutions that will promote energy productivity, empowering our customers to make the right choices and to do more with less energy, simultaneously reducing their carbon footprints.
We will lead the transition to a decarbonized energy system in line with the UN IPCC target of limiting global warming to 1.5 °C, by focusing on the following:
As we progress along our chosen path, we will always seek to enable shared prosperity and well-being in ways that will regenerate our planet for future generations.
