Our impact
Sustainability is part of our DNA. Although producing and enabling the wider use of clean energy is fundamental to what we do, we believe we have to do more.
For us, sustainability means creating shared value for all of our stakeholders.
Whether that’s through funding for the communities surrounding our energy plants, community ownership of our projects or ensuring that we build and maintain our developments with support from local workers and suppliers.
Building relationships with our communities, being transparent and caring in our approach, and redistributing value is at the heart of everything we do.
Our sustainable heritage
As an early leader in community engagement, we began building relationships with the communities around our onshore projects in the UK from the very beginning. Since establishing the first community benefit fund in 2005, we have created successful and trusted community engagement and funding initiatives at all plants in the UK, Sweden, and Norway, as well as some of our projects in Spain, Italy and France.

In 2022 we supported almost 200 community projects
The projects funded including the refurbishment of community facilities, support for cultural groups to preserve their heritage and contributing to the rebuilding of community health facilities.
The results of our activities speak for themselves – almost half of our projects are now involved in community engagement models and this number is still growing. In Italy we established our first crowdfunding campaign to allow the people living around our plants to invest in renewable energy projects, achieving almost 70 investors and 180% of our target funds. In Spain, we are the first company to be awarded with the Sustainability Seal by UNEF for three agrivoltaic projects.
As a result of many years of refining our sustainable approach, we formalised our commitment in the form of our Sustainability Charter. It represents how we behave and how we implement sustainability throughout our activities.

Our goals
Our sustainability commitments are guided by analysis that provides a snapshot of the sustainability issues that influence our ability to generate and share value.
Our commitments are divided into four focused areas – we call these the 4 Capitals – in which we strive to provide a positive impact. Each of the capitals is measured by a KPI, representing a strategic sustainability goal.
Economic and productive capital
refers to our ability to create shared value. Our innovative business model combines economic sustainability with the generation of social and environmental value, and we measure our progress by tracking the distributed added value of our activities.
Social and relational capital
represents our relationship with communities and local stakeholders, as well as the involvement of the local workforce and short supply chain. Communities are at the core of our operations and make the development of our business possible. We measure our commitment towards social and relational capital by tracking the share of our plants with significant community engagement programmes in place.
Environmental and climate capital
describes our wider commitment to sustainability, beyond just producing clean energy. For us, sustainability centres around our activities having as minimal impact on the environment as possible. It measures our contribution to a just energy transition and our commitment is tracked by the CO2 emissions avoided thanks to wind and solar power production.
Human capital
our people are the heart of our business. This is why we create an environment that champions the development of our employees through learning in a healthy and safe working environment. We track our commitment to this capital by tracking the annual average hours of training per employee.
Our Sustainability Report
The Sustainability at the Core – Our shared value report aims to explain how our vision of sustainability inspires business models and activities. In this document, which summarizes our non-financial performance according to the Global Reporting Initiative guidelines, we explain how we produce and sell clean energy, how we provide innovative services, our relationships with local communities, how we protect the environment, the growth of people, our governance and our guiding values.
