“In Tennessee, Bechtel delivered the Watts Bar nuclear power plant that is expected to power more than 650,000 homes. The energy generated from this plant is equivalent to preventing nearly 6–8 million tons of carbon emissions produced annually from coal-fired power plants. “In the United Arab Emirates, we formed an integrated sustainability team with our partner to design and construct the Al Taweelah Alumina Refinery. The build-out of the operation management building represents a spectrum of measurable sustainability: 100 percent recycled water for irrigation; 44 percent reduction in water consumption; 12 percent reduction in energy use; and 50 percent of procured steel using recycled content. “In Texas and Virginia, we are designing and building some of cleanest natural gas power plants in the United States (Panda Sherman, Temple I-II and Stonewall), which are expected to energize nearly 3 million homes when completed. The plants use high-efficiency power generation technologies to lower carbon emissions”. The Chief Executive Officer at Bechtel, Bill Dudley, said:
