Committed to long-term impact.

ESG Report

At Novar, ESG is not a checkbox exercise. Even when European regulations changed and companies of our size were no longer required to report, we chose to continue. With the same ambition and consistency. Because ESG is not about ticking boxes. It is about aligning our strategy with the long-term value we want to create for people, planet and society.

What drives us

As a developer of green energy systems, our impact goes beyond the energy we generate. Every project affects nature, people, communities and value chains. And with that comes responsibility.

That is why we are making ESG an increasingly concrete part of how we work. In 2025, we translated our ambitions further into measurable KPIs and targets. We are working to reduce COâ‚‚ emissions and increase renewable energy production, make biodiversity increasingly measurable and advance the circular use of materials. At the same time, we invest in the wellbeing and development of our people and in long-term relationships with the communities around our projects.

Good governance is part of that too. We are strengthening our requirements for suppliers, increasing transparency across our value chain and continuing to build our digital resilience and cybersecurity. Not as separate ESG topics, but as part of how we make our organisation and energy systems future-proof.

Step by step, this makes it clearer where we stand, where we are heading and the impact we want to create. For people, nature and society.

Highlights from 2025

In 2025, we further strengthened our ESG approach. We link our ambitions to concrete KPIs, measure where we stand today and set targets for 2026 and 2030. This makes our progress increasingly visible.

Highlights

More renewable energy

In 2025, our assets produced 322 GWh of renewable energy. By 2030, we aim to more than triple this to 1,040 GWh.

Making biodiversity measurable

We are monitoring biodiversity more systematically across our solar parks. This allows us to track ecological developments and make targeted adjustments.

Wellbeing as a foundation for growth

Through programmes focused on stress, leadership and a healthy working environment, we are making wellbeing an integral part of sustainable growth.

ESG is not about regulation, it is about responsibility. From biodiversity to cybersecurity, from human rights in our supply chain to the wellbeing of our team. We see these themes not only as obligations, but as opportunities to lead.
