Insights into Hera's Energy Renewability
In 2023, Hera consumed a total of 17.56 million Gigajoules of energy across its operations. Of this total, 11.36% was sourced from renewable energy, either derived from natural resources like biofuels, biomass, or biogas, or generated using renewable technologies such as solar or wind power. The remaining 88.64% was classified as non-renewable energy, coming from fossil-based fuels such as coal, natural gas, or crude oil, or from non-renewable generation technologies like nuclear power.
Hera's Energy Renewability Rate
How much of Hera's energy consumed is renewable?
In 2023, Hera consumed a total of 17.56 million Gigajoules of energy, of which 11.36% was derived from renewable sources, including biofuels, biomass, biogas, solar, and wind power.
This low level of renewable energy use highlights a heavy reliance on fossil fuels or other non-renewable sources, suggesting that Hera has considerable room to improve its energy sustainability strategy.
Are Hera's energy practices becoming more sustainable?
Since 2021, Hera's total energy consumption decreased by 1.29%, and remained stable in 2023, suggesting earlier reductions may have leveled off.
Over the same period, the share of renewable energy increased by 19.13%, while holding steady in 2023, indicating past gains that have recently stabilized.
Overall, Hera’s energy trends reveal a complex picture, with variations in total consumption and renewable sourcing. A closer examination of operational drivers and sourcing strategies is needed to fully assess the company’s environmental impact.

Insights into Hera's Energy Inflows & Self-Sufficiency
In 2023, Hera reported total energy inflows of 75.54 million Gigajoules, which corresponds to the company's full energy needs, including energy consumed, redistributed, sold, or stored. This energy inflow was composed of 67.91 million Gigajoules purchased from external suppliers and 7.63 million Gigajoules generated through internal production. This corresponds to a production share of 10.1%, reflecting a 88.41% percentage point decrease from the previous year (2022) and a 141.7% percentage point decrease since 2021.
Although Hera's production share has remained steady in the most recent year, it has declined compared to earlier periods. This suggests a long-term trend toward reduced self-production, possibly reflecting changing investment priorities or greater reliance on external supply networks.
