Energising change: Chris Norbury on purpose-driven energy transformation

Our CEO, Chris Norbury, recently spoke to Rt Hon Justine Greening, Chair of The Purpose Coalition, about the crucial role E.ON is playing in making renewable energy systems work for our customers and for society.  

Energy has a profound impact on people's lives. From ensuring affordable heating for homes to creating economic opportunities for communities.

As a company that millions of UK homes, businesses and communities rely on for their energy needs, we know we play a crucial role in addressing the challenges related to sustainability, climate change and social mobility.

What sets us apart is our ability to integrate these aspects into our core mission and drive as a purpose-driven organisation. And our mission is clear – to facilitate the transition to a new, more sustainable energy world that benefits our customers and society, ensuring that nobody is left behind.

This commitment goes beyond economic success and competitiveness; it directly impacts the daily lives of individuals and communities. Heating homes, improving health outcomes, supporting small businesses, and investing in community infrastructure are all integral to E.ON's purpose-driven approach. It is a collective endeavour that requires collaboration, innovation, and a commitment to serving the needs of both present and future generations.

Hear more from Chris Norbury in his recent discussion with Rt Hon Justine Greening about E.ON's commitment to leading with purpose and how we are setting a positive example for the energy industry and beyond.

The conversation highlights the importance of aligning business goals with societal wellbeing, empowering communities, fostering innovation and driving meaningful change.
