Climate Protection Requires Multitasking
As one of the world's largest investor-owned power and gas companies, E.ON has a responsibility to take action in many areas to help protect the earth's climate. We aim to realize our full climate-protection potential and to devote our efforts to the areas where we can do the most good. Energy efficiency is a key component of our climate-protection strategy. We're building a new generation of high-efficiency coal-fired and gas-fired power plants that will emit up to 20 percent less carbon than typical conventional power plants in Europe. We help residential and business customers to significantly improve their carbon footprint by offering them advice, services, and innovative technologies. We're expanding our renewables portfolio on an industrial scale to make our energy mix climate-friendlier. We're working to make clean coal a viable option for the future and to further expand our expertise in nuclear technology because nuclear energy is a an effective way to protect the earth's climate.
