Zorlu Energy, which provides all of its electricity production in Turkey from renewable energy sources, received an "A-" grade and rose to the Leadership level in the Climate Change 2023 evaluation of CDP (Carbon Disclosure Project), which aims to report and share environmental data of companies transparently in order to reduce the effects of climate change and protect natural resources.

Zorlu Energy has been reporting since CDP Turkey was established in 2010

Zorlu Energy has been regularly measuring and reporting its data on climate change since CDP Turkey was established in 2010, and it became one of the first companies to receive the Carbon Disclosure Award within the scope of CDP in 2011. Having been ranked at the top of the ratings with its group companies every year it reported to CDP, Zorlu Energy maintained its score with a "B" grade in the CDP Water Program and was evaluated within the Management level. Zorlu Energy, the first company in the energy sector to report to CDP, took its place on the Awareness list with a C score in the CDP Forests report, where only four companies from Turkey report. Zorlu Energy's group companies (GAZDAŞ) and Osmangazi Elektrik Dağıtım AŞ (OEDAŞ) were evaluated at the Management level by receiving a B score in the CDP Climate Change Program to which they reported.

Evaluating the matter, Zorlu Energy CEO Sinan Ak said the following: "While doing our job, we fulfill our responsibilities towards the environment and natural resources and take the effects of the climate and water crisis into consideration when determining our business strategies. We invest in different areas of renewable energy production, such as wind, solar, geothermal and hydroelectric power plants, and strengthen our portfolio with investments in line with sustainability, environmental and social management system policies. Within the framework of 'Akıllı Hayat 2030' and in line with our sustainability mission, we provide environmentally friendly, safe, high-quality, sustainable energy production and distribution, and we strengthen the value we create in all our work by focusing on our stakeholders. As a result of all these activities, we are very pleased to be promoted to leadership with our environmental performance by CDP, to which we have been reporting regularly since 2010."

Zorlu Energy, which produces energy solutions in every field from energy production to sales, from operating electric vehicle charging stations to solar panel production and sales, determines the effects of the company's activities on the environment with its "Biological Diversity and Ecosystem Management System" in order to achieve its goals in the field of nature management.
