EnBW is regularly rated in the areas of sustainability and finance by various rating agencies.

We liaise closely with leading sustainability rating agencies and incorporate their analyses and assessments of our corporate strategy, situation and prospects in our decision-making. We seek to continuously improve our ratings with recognized agencies in the field of sustainability. In this way, we aim to strengthen our positioning as a responsible and sustainable company and also appeal to financial investors whose investment decisions are wholly or partly based on sustainability criteria.
