As a predominantly coal-fired producer, DPL is committed to operating in an environmentally responsible and compliant manner. In 2008, we completed the final stage of a $600 million investment in flue gas desulfurization equipment, commonly called scrubbers, to significantly reduce sulfur dioxide emissions, produce cleaner air, and comply with environmental regulations.
