Integrated reporting

EnBW has published its fourth integrated report for the financial year 2017. In order to meet the changing needs of stakeholders for information, EnBW has replaced the traditional split financial and sustainability reporting with one integrated report.

EnBW recognised the importance of integrated reporting – which not only takes into account economic but also ecological and social dimensions – at an early stage. We published an integrated report based on the recommendations of the IIRC (International Integrated Reporting Council) for the first time for the 2014 financial year, with the aim of achieving a holistic representation of the performance of the company. This was a further milestone on our path towards more concise, transparent and comprehensive reporting to meet the increased needs of stakeholders for more information.

We have taken this process further with the Integrated Annual Report 2017. The most important information on sustainability continues to be included in the integrated report, while more detailed information on sustainability has been prepared and made available on the EnBW website.

On the basis of the EnBW 2020 strategy, integrated reporting at EnBW implies the highly integrated management of the company. By presenting financial and non-financial corporate goals – the achievement of which is measured using key performance indicators – we are seeking to promote integrated thinking within the company and underline the importance of being comprehensively oriented towards our performance and stakeholders.

The corporate performance of EnBW is thus not only measured by financial results, as the short to long-term success of the company is also dependent on the decisions EnBW takes in response to the constantly changing economic, ecological and social conditions.
