Hera awarded 2023 Sustainability Gold Class by S&P Global
This year, once again, we have received the Gold Class from the rating agency responsible for the Sustainability Awards
With the publication of the 2023 Sustainability Yearbook – the report containing the analyses carried out to gain access the Dow Jones Sustainability Index (DJSI) – we have been awarded S&P Global’s Gold Class for the third consecutive year. This is the highest recognition for companies listed in the Dow Jones Sustainability Index, in which we confirmed our position as sector leader for the 3rd year in a row.
In the most recent edition of the authoritative DJSI international stock market index, which evaluates listed companies on the basis of ESG factors, Hera ranked first internationally in its sector (Multi-utility & Water), with a score of 90/100 compared to a sector average of 34/100, calculated based on the three areas analysed: Environment, Social and Governance.
A focus on sustainable development and creating value for the areas and communities served is a commitment and a responsibility that we have taken on since it was established in 2002, with the aim of guaranteeing quality and continuity in essential services for citizens and return value to all stakeholders. Our approach to sustainability, our mission and our purpose – which in 2021 became an integral part of its Articles of Association – indicate the direction in which we intend to continue, in line with the objectives of the United Nations 2030 agenda and with the creation of shared value in three main areas: energy, environment, local areas (and enterprises).
