BYRON – Employees at Exelon Generation’s Byron Generating Station have long been stewards for the environment, producing carbon-free electricity for more than two million Illinois homes and businesses.
And recently, hundreds of employees and their family members demonstrated that commitment by planting 750 spruce and cedar trees, along with deciduous elderberry and hazelnut shrubs, just south of the plant’s entrance on German Church Road. The new trees join more than 1,000 trees planted to the north of the plant over the previous four years.
“Byron Generating Station and its employees are incredible environmental assets,” said site vice president, Mark Kanavos. “We operate at world-class levels of environmental excellence and are always looking for ways to enhance our property to preserve and protect wildlife.
