Our Commitment to Communities

We develop projects responsibly and strengthen the communities where we live, work, and build through partnerships, corporate giving, and volunteerism.

What we stand for

At Cypress Creek, we believe our work should help strengthen communities. Our commitment comes to life through three connected efforts: developing and operating responsibly, investing in community resilience, and showing up through meaningful partnerships and local involvement. 

How we put it into practice

Our Commitment to Communities is built around three core pillars that guide how we work, invest and show up.

Stewardship

Developing, building and operating responsibly  

We are mindful of the impact we have on all the communities we touch. Through responsible practices such as recycling and waste reduction efforts, sustainable procurement, agrivoltaics, ecovoltaics, and consideration for land, water, and habitat, we work to support the long-term health and resilience of the places our people and our partners call home.

Investment

Funding community resilience 

 

Through the Cypress Creek Community Foundation, we invest in organizations and initiatives that help communities thrive. Our giving supports local priorities and strengthens the places where we live, work, and build. 

We invest in community resilience through three focus areas: 

  • Education and Workforce Development, expanding access to jobs, skills, and future opportunities 
  • Essential Needs, supporting the systems people rely on every day. 
  • Public Safety and Service, strengthening the places and services that sustain communities.

Engagement

Showing up for our communities 

 

Strong communities are built through relationships. Cypress Creek has a dedicated Community Relations team that works closely with local stakeholders to build partnerships in the communities that are home to our energy projects. 

Through ongoing engagement, employee volunteer efforts through our Cypress Creek Community Ambassador Program, and partnerships with schools, nonprofits, and local organizations, we work alongside communities to listen, engage, and make a meaningful difference.
