Responsibility throughout the entire value chain

Our sustainable business model in the fields of wind energy, photovoltaics and energy storage solutions is both a commitment and a responsibility for us. At the same time, we're dedicated to responsible corporate governance throughout our entire value chain. In our day-to-day business, we take into account not only economic interests but also environmental, social and societal concerns. We strive to create sustainable value for our customers, employees, investors and suppliers, for local communities and for our planet.

Our ESG Strategy

Goals and actions by 2030

We have adopted a comprehensive ESG strategy through 2030. Building on a business model that is firmly committed to climate protection, the strategy specifically addresses other key sustainability aspects in the areas of environment, social affairs and governance (Environment, Social, Governance).

As part of our strategic development in 2025, all business units were actively involved in defining goals and measures. Our goal is to integrate ESG holistically and effectively into our business purpose and all relevant business processes.

To identify the material topics, we conducted a multi-step process based on the dual materiality approach in accordance with ESRS.

“Sustainability is part of our corporate philosophy and is therefore an integral part of our corporate management. With the new ESG strategy, we are creating transparency, setting ambitious goals, and laying the foundation for long-term economic and social success.”
