Respecting the environment, creating value for local areas and people, and contributing to the energy transition have always been our priorities. We remain faithful to this choice by providing clean energy from renewable sources, by making our production processes efficient and by offsetting carbon dioxide emissions.
We support the people who work with us and the communities around us, building together a fairer and greener future for all.
The following are the milestones in our journey towards sustainability:
First Sustainability Plan
Since its creation, the Group has been implementing a sustainability management system and promoting a green culture.
Issue of the first Green Bond
The issue was aimed at financing the acquisition of hydroelectric power plants.
Sustainability Programme 2017 – 2021
Alperia adopted its first Sustainability Plan for the 2017-2021 period, setting out its environmental, social and economic sustainability goals. The plan was approved by the Management Board and the Supervisory Board

Risk Management
Establishment of an integrated Risk Management Policy which also considers environmental and social risks.

Conclusion of the first five-year sustainability period
In 2021, our first Sustainability Plan came to an end and we achieved results that make us proud. Many of these have been achieved thanks to our investments in innovation, the support of our stakeholders, and the determination with which, every year, we ensure that we keep our plants up-to-date and reliable, developing more energy-efficient solutions
New Sustainability Plan 2022-2027
We have set sustainability targets for the next five years – because we have done a lot, but we want to do even more.
