Enercon has launched a new sustainability strategy reinforcing its commitment to sustainable use of resources.
Key elements of the sustainability strategy include the commitment to even more environmental and climate protection, a targeted improvement in healthy and safe working conditions and a commitment to responsible and transparent corporate governance.
Reducing direct greenhouse gas emissions by 30%, increasing green energy consumption to 100% and developing rotor blades that are fully recyclable are examples of selected sustainability goals to be reached by 2030.
Furthermore, the company aims to increase the quota of women in leadership positions to 25% and introduce systems for transparent internal and external sustainability reporting.
“Sustainable action is an essential commitment for ENERCON and an integral element of our company DNA – and has been since day one,” said Enercon CEO Udo Bauer.
“Together with our employees, with our products and business partners, we want to make a noticeably positive contribution to the environment, society and the economy.
“The new sustainability strategy acts as our compass,” he added.
With the new sustainability strategy, Enercon is also preparing for increasing legislative requirements in Europe, such as the EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) or the EU Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD).
