Quanta Services, Inc. (PWR) — ESG & Values Scores

Environment story

Quanta's 10-K discloses no Scope 1/2/3 emissions figures, renewable-electricity percentage, or a formal net-zero target year, resulting in deductions for non-disclosure under both the Scope 3 and net-zero criteria. The company's core business includes substantial physical decarbonization infrastructure work (utility-scale wind, solar, battery storage, hydrogen and carbon-capture project construction), which supports a partial offsetting credit. However, the 10-K also details ongoing wildfire liability exposure, where Quanta operating companies have received tenders of defense, subpoenas and indemnity demands tied to catastrophic wildfire events linked to customer electrical infrastructure serviced by Quanta, warranting a moderate controversy deduction. This is informational research and does not constitute financial advice.

No lobbying expenditure data targeting environmental or consumer-protection deregulation was disclosed in the provided filings. A moderate governance deduction is applied for ongoing wildfire-related regulatory investigations, subpoenas and indemnity demands received by Quanta operating companies, which constitute active public-safety-adjacent regulatory/legal exposure, though no antitrust or financial-fraud consent decree is disclosed. This is informational research and does not constitute financial advice.
