Working Together for Climate Protection

We can - and must - protect the climate to counteract climate change and its devastating consequences for people and the environment. Climate change is one of the greatest challenges of the 21st century. The energy sector is the largest emitter of greenhouse gases. Reducing these emissions, which are responsible for global warming, is therefore critical. At EWE, we are fully aware of our responsibility - especially because secure, affordable, and sustainable energy supply is the backbone of our society and a prerequisite for a competitive economy.

Today. Tomorrow. For generations.

Our EWE regions in northwestern Germany, Brandenburg, and on the island of Rügen are already experiencing the effects of climate change - through floods, droughts, and other extreme weather events. At the same time, northwestern Germany plays a key role in the energy transition, as we are already well on the way to building a future-proof energy system based on renewable energy. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why climate protection is so close to our hearts - especially for our employees?

At EWE, climate protection isn’t just a strategy - it’s a core element of our overall corporate direction and defines how we act. But what exactly are we doing to protect the climate? What can each of us contribute? And what does climate protection really mean? Find all the answers here.
