Preserving habitats and biodiversity
All living things matter.
We have a variety of plants and animals in our shared environment, but habitat and biodiversity are more than that. All living things are vital to the ecosystems in which they live.
Terrestrial habitats and wildlife
Our generating stations and rights-of-way traverse thousands of acres of land, which we carefully manage to protect habitats of plant and animal species. As we manage vegetation around transmission lines, we also work to benefit plants and wildlife that require open, low-growing habitats.
Exelon has a longstanding partnership with the Wildlife Habitat Council to restore and enhance wildlife habitats at our facilities and where we have rights-of-way. Exelon has been a member of the council for more than 15 years and maintains 50 WHC sites and 70 National Wildlife Federation certified sites.
