For the third consecutive year, Southern Company proudly delivers 100% renewable energy for the TOUR Championship. This initiative has helped earn the tournament its first-ever GEO Certified Tournament recognition. Driving sustainability on course links up with our company goal off the course – achieving net zero emissions across our electric and gas businesses by 20250.
Sustainable solutions adding up to a big impact with 100% of the tournament’s energy usage from renewable sources, resulting in a fossil-based carbon emissions reduction of approximately 650,000 lbs of CO21 on the course, which is equivalent to 245 gasoline-powered passenger vehicles being driven for one year.
Since 2022, 100% of the tournament’s energy usage has been renewable, and our commitment to driving sustainability on course resulted in the 2023 event being recognized as a GEO Certified® Tournament for the first time
