Sustainability
As a Group which owns two transmission system operators (TSOs), our main priority is to make the energy transition a success. We employ state-of-the art solutions across our entire value chain and firmly integrate sustainability across all layers of our organisation in order to be a good corporate citizen.
Driving the decarbonisation of society
The essence of our mission as a Group of TSOs is ensuring a successful energy transition by contributing to the decarbonisation of society. We facilitate the integration of large quantities of renewable energy sources (RES) into the energy system and encourage further parts of society to be electrified via massive investments in our power grids, the development of a new market design and enhanced system operations. Sustainability therefore lies at the very core of our business model.
That is not all. Our ActNow programme, which is based on the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), defines concrete targets and activities related to how we embed sustainability across all of our business activities.
ActNow – our compass for sustainability
Our ActNow programme includes five dimensions which we use as a compass: these guide us as we embed sustainability across all layers of our organisation. ActNow ensures that we continue to serve society as it decarbonises and ensures that we meet our ambitious company goals in a truly sustainable way – by focusing on the climate, the environment and on social and governance aspects.
Implementing ActNow locally
Both of our TSOs have established detailed plans and projects which help them contribute to meeting our ActNow goals and sustainability targets. You can find more detailed information about the projects being undertaken by Elia (in Belgium) and 50Hertz (in Germany) on the respective websites below.
