For us, sustainability is not just a goal; it is also a requirement that is firmly entrenched in our DNA. Since our establishment, it has been a cornerstone of our corporate strategy, driving us to be innovative and contribute positively to the world in which we live. 

SUSTAINABILITY IN ALL AREAS.

Our commitment to sustainability extends far beyond clean energy production. It includes all the activities of our company. We prioritise the well-being of our employees and partners, actively engage in responsible land tenure, and strive for sustainable sourcing across all our operations. All of these efforts are part of our evolving corporate governance.

Clear goals. Long-term plan.

By aligning our activities with the United Nations Sustainability Goals (UN SDGs), we not only meet standards but also actively shape a sustainable future for generations to come. 

We contribute to global decarbonisation efforts, as detailed in UN SDG 7.1 (Ensure universal access to affordable, reliable and modern energy services) and UN SDG 7.2 (Increase substantially the share of renewable energy in the global energy mix). Furthermore, our progress in decarbonisation has positive effects on other UN goals, including the development of reliable infrastructure, the efficient use of natural resources, and action against climate change.

Our sustainability report.

Transparency is a key component of our corporate culture and strategy. That’s why we publish a sustainability report every year, offering stakeholders a detailed view of our performance and target attainment in the areas of Environment, Social and Governance (ESG). Our reports detail our progress, challenges, and goals that underpin our commitment to sustainable business activities.

Our commitment to the energy turnaround.

At Blue Elephant Energy, we are determined to drive the energy transition forward. Through strategic investments and project developments, we accelerate the adoption of renewable energy sources. With our consistent focus on the acquisition, development and operation of our photovoltaic systems, wind farms and energy storage, we are paving the way for a sustainable energy future. Since our establishment, the company’s focus has been on the expansion of solar parks and onshore wind farms. In 2022, we expanded our portfolio with our first energy storage system, further enhancing our ability to shape the future of sustainable energy.

Our plants currently contribute to the decarbonisation of the energy mix in nine countries: Germany, the Netherlands, France, Spain, Italy, Greece, Hungary, the Dominican Republic and Chile. As we continue to advance our activities in these countries, we aim to expand into additional countries in the years to come.

A better future for all.

Our sustainability strategy is designed not only to minimise negative environmental impacts but also to create long-term positive effects in local communities. For this reason, we are involved in various social and environmental projects, particularly in the countries in which we operate. 

In the Dominican Republic, for example, we support numerous social initiatives for the local population. A significant proportion of our solar park is designated as an environmental protection area, generating clean energy while preserving biodiversity. In Chile, we support local schools and measures to protect flora and fauna through donations. In various countries across Europe, we work with foundations and charitable organisations that are committed to fighting poverty, supporting children and youth projects, education, public infrastructure, and nature conservation.

Holistic thinking. Far-sighted action.

Sustainable company management is closely linked to progressive corporate governance. We continuously refine our structures and processes, ensuring that we always adhere to the highest standards and, at the same time, secure the long-term success of our company.

Our governance guidelines are regularly reviewed and adapted to current legal, economic, and social framework conditions. Our principles of environmental and social sustainability form the foundation of numerous measures to reduce our environmental footprint, promote social justice and support sustainable business strategies. 

These efforts demonstrate that our corporate governance not only meets essential requirements but also evolves in a future-oriented way. The combination of strong governance and sustainable action creates a stable foundation for our long-term success.
