Trend

EnBW is awarded a trend score of -. If the company were reassessed in the near future, its score would likely worsen. As a result of its current and expected ongoing asset mix, EnBW’s emissions intensity is not predicted to decrease over the coming period. This will bring the company even further out of alignment with its decarbonisation pathway.   It is not expected that the developing focus on grid infrastructure and flexibilities as well as increased renewables will be enough to close the decarbonisation action gap. Changes in EnBW’s generation assets are largely being forced by German and EU energy and climate regulation. Although the company is making strategic choices to steer its business model towards low-carbon activities, it remains to be seen whether the structural changes required can be achieved quickly enough.
