Enbridge Gas Distrubution Inc.
Future development at Enbridge
At Enbridge, strategic planning and succession planning are ongoing processes that have positioned the company well for continued growth.
Our planning processes have provided Enbridge with its basic direction today, and that basic direction remains sound. While I do foresee some course corrections, they are corrections that will be the result of the rapidly changing environment we work in.
Strategies for growth
Enbridge\'s resources are focused on three broad strategic thrusts and three areas of increased emphasis. The major strategies are to:
continue to expand the Company\'s core platforms, increase its asset base through a variety of means including organic growth and acquisition of strategic assets. The four core platforms are Liquids Pipelines, Gas Pipelines, Gas Distribution and Services, and International;
capitalize on the Enbridge Energy Partners and Enbridge Income Fund vehicles through acquisition of assets from third parties and transfers of mature assets from Enbridge; and,
focus on operational excellence, including the application of incentive regulatory structures.
