As a major economic and responsible player, E.ON contributes to economic development and social projects in regions in which it operates. The Group emphasizes three themes: climate change, access to energy and responsibility towards future generations.

Examples:

Enhance local heritage
We are helping Saint-Avold city near Emile Huchet power plant with what we do on a daily basis: electricity. We particpate in illuminating the exceptional Saint-Nabor abbey, a historical symbol in the industrial area.

Share our experience
Through the "Energy for Children" program, we are educating the future generations to use energy resources in a more responsible manner. Throughout the year our French power plants and wind farms open their doors to middle and high school students for educational visits.

Encourage goodwill
E.ON one priority is to encourage employees to volunteer in and outside the firm. Under the framework of "Employee Engagement" various actions are implemented in Europe: for instance, support private volunteering , Energy and Environment trophy, planting trees and International Volunteer Day.
