ASPIRE Values

Our ASPIRE values drive all facets of our business.

Calpine has provided me with a challenging and fulfilling work environment. I can easily say, I haven’t been bored yet! Calpine’s ASPIRE values: Accountability, Safety, Passion, Integrity, Respect and Esprit de Corps, are built into the fabric of the organization. I’ve experienced these tenets time and time again as our teams work together to generate electricity, take care of one another, the environment and our equipment.
-Nadira Basdeo, EHS Program Manager II

Diversity & Inclusion

Our goals can only be accomplished through continued – and intentional – development of a diverse, engaged and inclusive workforce. With differing backgrounds and experiences, our colleagues contribute valuable knowledge and unique perspectives that help us make better decisions, which in turn result in better business outcomes.

Employee Resource Groups

We celebrate diversity every day and are committed to fostering a workplace where all employees feel they belong. Our Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) are proof of that commitment. These voluntary, employee-led organizations are formed based on common identities, interests and backgrounds and provide a forum for knowledge sharing and networking.

Calpine’s ERGs are open to all employees:

  • Veterans ERG
  • Women’s Initiatives and Networking
  • Hispanics Energizing Calpine
  • Black-African American ERG
  • Asian American ERG
  • Coalition of Allies Advancing Pride in Energy
  • New Employee Resource Forum
