The UK plays a key role in RWE's strategy to grow its renewables portfolio and to become carbon neutral by 2040. By 2030, RWE expects to invest £15bn in new green technologies and infrastructure, to help the UK become more energy independent and achieve its climate goals. 

RWE directly employs around 2,600 people in the UK, plus many more indirectly.

RWE is already a key player in Ireland and sees huge potential in the market. The company has earmarked up to €1.5 billion gross for investment in Ireland up to 2030, across its renewable energy portfolio of onshore wind, offshore wind, solar, and battery storage.

Its largest renewables development in Ireland - Dublin Array Offshore Wind Farm - has a proposed installed capacity of between 600-900MW, and is being developed 10km off the south Dublin coast.

Data networks, mobility, industry, infrastructure, businesses, family: We all need energy. Society is facing a major task as a result: meeting a growing need for electricity while protecting the climate. RWE is a driver of the energy transition and, with an extensive investment and growth strategy, it will expand its powerful, green generation capacity to 50 gigawatts internationally by 2030. RWE is investing more than €50 billion gross for this purpose in this decade. The portfolio is based on offshore and onshore wind, solar, hydropower, hydrogen, batteries, biomass and gas.

RWE Supply & Trading provides tailored energy solutions for large customers. Innovative projects such as floating offshore and the use of hydrogen are proceeding apace. RWE has locations in the attractive markets of Europe, North America and the Asia-Pacific region. The company is responsibly phasing out nuclear energy and coal. RWE employs around 19,000 people worldwide and has a clear target: to get to net zero by 2040. On its way there, the company has set itself ambitious targets for all activities that cause greenhouse gas emissions. The Science Based Targets initiative has confirmed that these emission reduction targets are in line with the Paris Agreement. Very much in the spirit of the company’s purpose:

Our energy for a sustainable life.
