Born in 2002 out of the aggregation of 11 municipal companies operating in Emilia-Romagna, first corporation of its kind nationwide, over time Hera has embarked on a journey of consistent and balanced growth, incorporating other companies active in the same areas. Hera, publicly listed since 2003, is now among the nation’s largest multi-utilities, working mainly in the environment (waste management), water (aqueduct, sewerage and purification) and energy (electricity, gas distribution and sales, energy services) sectors. Other services offered include public lighting and telecommunications.
Almost 9,000 employees meet the needs of 4.4 million citizens in over 350 municipalities in Emilia-Romagna, Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Marche, Tuscany and Veneto.
Sustainability has always played a key role in Hera’s strategy ever since its establishment.
In 2016, Hera began a process aimed at designing the Group’s approach to the Creation of Shared Value and reached its own definition of CSV (Creating Shared Value) consistent with the nature of its business. The aim of the process is to further integrate sustainability into our business activities and to direct both our strategy and sustainability reporting to the urgencies dictated by the Global Agenda on Sustainable Development. Thanks to this process, the Hera Group is reshaping its approach towards corporate social responsibility, which no longer focuses on the “what” and “how” of the company but on its “why”, becoming a beacon that inspires strategy and guides innovation, with a more positive, direct and systematic impact on competitiveness, reputation and involvement.
