GERMANY: The path to climate-neutral buildings: 100,000 tons of CO2 savings through smart photovoltaics

One hundred joins global UN initiative

Without a radical change in the building sector and a general rethinking of the entire business world, we will not achieve the climate goals”

— Dr. Ernesto Garnier, CEO and founder of Einhundert.

KOLN, GERMANY, January 29, 2025 / EINPresswire.com / -- The Cologne-based energy company Einhundert is participating in the United Nations' global Vision 2045 campaign. Together with other companies, Einhundert is committed to innovative, responsible solutions to drive change and achieve the UN's 17 sustainability goals.

The building sector as the key to CO2 reduction
Buildings are responsible for 40% of CO2 emissions worldwide. A large

part of these emissions are caused by the energy required for electricity and heat in houses. This is a major lever for the energy transition, which shows the urgent need for sustainable solutions in the real estate sector.

Electricity from your own roof: photovoltaics as the engine of the energy transition
The CO2 emissions of buildings can be drastically reduced by using solar power produced on the roofs. This is where Einhundert comes in with a holistic photovoltaic solution and supplies the buildings, their infrastructure and the people living in them with green electricity from their own roof - so-called tenant electricity. Einhundert is the market leader in this area. This makes the energy supply for properties sustainable on the one hand, and affordable and socially acceptable on the other.

100,000 tons of CO2 savings by 2028
Einhundert has set itself the goal of profoundly decarbonizing the building sector. By 2028, the company aims to save 100,000 tons of CO2 per year. The vision: a CO2-free building stock for livable cities.

Vision 2045: Paving the way for global climate goals
Participation in the United Nations' Vision 2045 campaign underscores Einhundert's commitment to the spread of renewable energies and climate protection. The campaign brings together leading companies from various sectors to find solutions for a more sustainable world and achieve the global climate goals.

"Without a radical turnaround in the building sector and a general rethinking of the entire business world, we will not achieve the climate goals - which is precisely why we are setting a sign for change together with the Vision 2045 initiative," explains Dr. Ernesto
Garnier, CEO and founder of Einhundert.
