Amprion awarded as ESG top performer
Sustainalytics has included the transmission system operator Amprion in its list of “2023 top-rated ESG companies“. The rating agency, specialised in sustainability, thereby awards the “ESG Industry Top Rated“-label and recognises Amprion’s work in the field of sustainability. The existing ESG risk rating remains at “12.8 – low risk“.
As a result of the annual assessment, Amprion was included in the list of “2023 top-rated ESG companies“ by Sustainalytics and receives the “ESG Industry Top Rated“-award. Within the category “electric utilities“, Amprion continues to rank 4th out of currently 301 rated companies worldwide.
Peter Rüth, Chief Financial Officer of Amprion comments: “Receiving the first ESG risk rating from Sustainalytics last year was an important milestone for Amprion. The ‘ESG Industry Top Rated’-award underlines our sustainability performance within the category of utilities. Looking ahead to the current year, we are working intensively, among other things, on the further development of our climate neutrality strategy based on internationally recognised standards.”
