Our goal: a climate-neutral building portfolio by 2045. 

The decarbonization of the heat supply through district heating and the electrification of the heat supply through heat pumps is the best approach for us.

In addition, we have launched a photovoltaic initiative. Vonovia has the potential for a total capacity of 700 MWp from photovoltaic systems and can also install 14,000 heat pumps in the long term. Our photovoltaic initiative benefits our tenants, who can directly benefit from the electricity generated on site and thus become part of the energy transition.

We are testing innovations in existing buildings in order to accelerate the decarbonization of the heat supply. One example is the use of surplus wind power, which supplies direct electricity heating in our buildings' hot water tanks and replaces gas.  

Key sustainability concepts at Vonovia include climate protection, hardship and social management and neighborhood development, including the district of the future.
