ENBRIDGE REPORTS ON PROGRESS AND CHALLENGES IN CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY PERFORMANCE

Enbridge Inc. is making strides in reaching its goal of being an industry leader in safety and reliability and continuing to build social and environmental considerations into its planning and decision making, according to its 2014 annual report on corporate social responsibility (CSR) performance.

"Our purpose as a company is to fuel people's quality of life by delivering energy to where North Americans need it -- reliably, efficiently, and with the safety of our employees, the public and the environment in mind," said president and chief executive officer Al Monaco.

"Our annual CSR report helps us hold ourselves accountable for our performance and for how we are responding to the social, economic and environmental factors driving our business. It also outlines areas where we have more work to do and the approach we're taking to get better, such as deepening our engagement with stakeholders and communities where we operate."

The report shows Enbridge is making progress toward its goal of industry leadership in pipeline safety and operational reliability.

In 2014, for example, the company invested more than $1.14-billion in system integrity and leak detection programs throughout its liquids pipelines business segment's operations. During the same period, spill volumes from Enbridge's liquids pipelines decreased from 2013 and 2012 levels.

"Safety and environmental protection is our No. 1 priority in all our operations. No single incident will ever be acceptable and that's why we continuously invest in new integrity management technology and advancements in leak detection," said Mr. Monaco.

Enbridge's 2014 CSR report reflects the company's most rigorous approach to date to reporting on topics identified as priorities by stakeholders. As a result, it includes more information on Enbridge's approach to sustainability challenges such as climate change, water protection, supply chain management, community economic benefits, and aboriginal and native rights and engagement.

Enbridge's full 2014 CSR report can be found on-line. The report discloses Enbridge's performance and data in key environmental, social and governance areas.

Enbridge released its 2014 CSR report concurrently with its 2014 annual report, which provides a detailed overview of the company's financial and operating performance for the same year and includes its consolidated financial statements and related management's discussion and analysis (MD&A) for the year ended Dec. 31, 2014. All of these documents, along with Enbridge's annual information form (Canada) and Form 40-F (United States), are available on SEDAR (Canadian filings), the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) website (U.S. filings), and the company's website.

Highlights from Enbridge's annual report have been mailed to all shareholders with a copy of the management information circular and information relating to the company's annual meeting of shareholders to be held on Wednesday, May 6, 2015. A full copy of the report, including the MD&A and financial statements, is being distributed to those shareholders who have opted to receive it.

Printed copies of the annual report will be available in both English and French on request.

Enbridge is one of the three Canadian energy companies on the 2015 Global 100 list of most sustainable corporations, and is also one of three Canadian energy companies on the 2014 Dow Jones Sustainability World Index. Both of these independent rating systems assess corporate performance on key social, economic and environmental indicators.
