GRI Index |
We base our CR reporting on the current G3 guidelines of the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), including the final version of the Electric Utility Sector Supplement (EUSS) dated April 2009. According to our self assessment, E.ON's 2010 CR reporting complies with application level B+ of the GRI guidelines.
About the Global Reporting Initiative
The GRI was established in 1997 with the goal of developing an internationally recognized guideline for voluntary reporting of the economic, ecological and social performance of organizations. The GRI guidelines comprise indicators for all sectors and all types of organization that aim to achieve transparent, comparable and stakeholder-oriented CR reporting. The current G3 standard was introduced in 2006. There are also sector supplements with industry-specific indicators. The EUSS applies to companies in the electric utility sector.
Our 2010 CR Reporting
We see a clear trend towards a need for more specific information among our stakeholders. In 2009 we revised the indicators on which we report to comply with the requirements of the final version of the EUSS and, along with the general indicators of the GRI guidelines, adapted them to meet the changing information needs of our stakeholders. We do not consider some indicators to be material and/or significant. In these cases, we have added an appropriate comment in the GRI Content Index.
