Marc Spieker: 'Over the past years, E.ON has established green financing as a core element in its funding strategy. With our updated Green Bond Framework, we create a platform to use green bonds as an integral part of our financing mix also going forward. We expect to cover more than 50 percent of our annual funding requirements with green bonds going forward. We are very proud that our new Green Bond Framework is the first corporate framework to be completely aligned with the current version of the EU Taxonomy and its Delegated Act. E.ON highly appreciates that with the EU Taxonomy and the draft EU Green Bond Standard, the EU fosters a way towards harmonized assessment criteria for sustainable investments.'

Thomas König: 'Electricity Networks play a key role for the energy transition and serve as the central platform to make the transition towards a more sustainable and decarbonised society a success. Applying smart technologies and consequently fostering the digitalisation of grid infrastructure allows us to manage our existing grids at high efficiency and at the same time expand our networks in a resource-efficient way. With our new Green Bond Framework, we give investors the opportunity to support us in making our energy systems cleaner and smarter and allowing us to supply our customers with green energy more efficiently.'
