Geoff Pegg

Director - Sustainability & Environment, TELUS

Totally committed to the company’s long belief in “making the future friendly”, Geoff led the company’s Sustainability team in the establishment of transformative climate change targets at TELUS, including success he helped TELUS achieve in surpassing their 2020 climate change goals, achieving a 15% reduction in energy use compared to the 10% target, and 31% reduction in GHG emissions compared to the 25% target. As a result, Geoff was able to push for even bigger targets: to have operations be carbon neutral by 2030 and to procure all electricity from renewable sources by 2025. He also negotiated TELUS’ second renewable Power Purchase Agreement to procure renewable energy from a grid-scale wind farm with no government subsidies.
