The environment as a heritage to be preserved and protected lies at the heart of our strategy focused on creating shared value.

This is why we defined our Climate transition plan, which charts the path to net-zero emissions by 2050, with an intermediate step in 2030. Our goal is to reduce emissions by around 90% and to remove from the atmosphere the residual emissions, acting on three levels: reducing our own consumption (continuing to power with 100% renewable electricity), and the footprint of our operations; offering solutions to accompany our customers in the energy transition; and continuing to invest in renewable energy. These actions not only reduce the emissions produced, but avoid producing new ones, combining economic growth and climate change mitigation.

Promotion of energy efficiency

what we said we would do...

  • -10% GROUP ENERGY CONSUMPTION

    by 2028, compared to 2013

what we did...

  • -8.8% GROUP ENERGY CONSUMPTION

    by 2025 (-8% by 2024), compared to 2013, thanks to the measures implemented

what we will do...

  • -10.3% GROUP ENERGY CONSUMPTION

    by 2029, compared to 2013

Energy transition and renewables

what we said we would do..

  • OVER 300 MW OF PHOTOVOLTAIC CAPACITY

    installed by 2028 (owned and sold plants, such as energy parks and agrivoltaic systems), of which 177 MW at Hera sites

  • 58% RENEWABLE ELECTRICITY

    sold on the free market by 2028

  • 147 GWh OF RENEWABLE GASES

    to be produced by 2028: 12 million cubic metres of biomethane and 770 tonnes of green hydrogen

what we did...

  • 71.5 MW OF PHOTOVOLTAIC CAPACITY INSTALLED

    (including owned and sold plants) by 2025 (44.1 MW in 2024)

  • 52.5% RENEWABLE ELECTRICITY

    sold on the free market in 2025 (49.1% in 2024)

  • 101 GWh OF RENEWABLE GASES

    produced in 2025 thanks to 10.7 million cubic metres of biomethane from organic waste (95.4 GWh and 10.1 million cubic metres respectively in 2024). Work continued on the construction of the power-to-methane plant at the Bologna Corticella wastewater treatment facility and construction started on the green hydrogen production plants in Modena and Trieste.

what we will do...

  • 370 MW OF PHOTOVOLTAIC CAPACITY

    installed by 2029 (owned and sold plants, such as energy parks and agrivoltaic systems), of which 200 MW at Hera sites

  • 58% RENEWABLE ELECTRICITY

    sold on the free market by 2029

  • 147 GWh OF RENEWABLE GASES

    produced per year by 2029: 12.3 million cubic metres of biomethane and 622 tonnes of green hydrogen

Climate change mitigation

what we said we would do...

  • -32% GHG EMISSIONS

    2019, thanks to internal decarbonisation initiatives and measures supporting customers. Approximately 90% reduction by 2050, also through the removal of all residual emissions, to achieve Net Zero

what we did...

  • -18% GHG EMISSIONS

    by 2025, compared to 2019. Published in 2024 the 1.5 °C Climate Transition Plan with the Hera Group’s Net Zero Commitment

what we will do...

  • -35% GHG EMISSIONS

    by 2029, using the SBTi methodology compared to 2019, thanks to internal decarbonisation initiatives and measures supporting customers
