Powering positive change for Coventry

Sustainable Coventry

Proud of Coventry

Our partnership with Coventry City Council, as their strategic energy partner, will help power Coventry to a cleaner, greener, more sustainable future by transforming the city’s approach to carbon reduction whilst helping people save money and boosting the local economy. 

Sustainability heroes

Coventry heroes

E.ON has been on a mission to find Coventry's Sustainability Heroes - the individuals and businesses who are leading the way in making our city more sustainable. As a city with a rich history of innovation and cultural significance, and through our 15-year partnership with Coventry City Council, Coventry has set its sights on becoming the cleanest, greenest city. From 'refill' shops striving to reduce waste, to young leaders campaigning for social and environmental causes, we have been inspired by the sustainability stories of our community who are making this city - and our planet - a greener, cleaner place.

 

Local energy economies

Spark a light

We surveyed 10,000 people across the UK on their attitudes towards sustainable change in their local areas, and the opportunities to create a green economy. To bring this to life we collaborated with John Bernard, the poet laureate of Coventry, to create a poem that brings together the hopes, dreams and wishes of people from across the city that will hopefully ‘Spark a Light’ and inspire them to make some of the small changes that we could all make in our lives to contribute towards a greener future.

Helping build sustainable businesses in Coventry and beyond

We're working hard to transform cities and communities into sustainable, energy-resilient, and investable future cities. We're taking action to reduce fuel poverty by providing innovative solutions such as solar panels, heat pumps, and electric vehicle charging infrastructure. By investing in these sustainable technologies, we aim to improve access to clean and affordable energy, support decarbonisation efforts, and create a more efficient and resilient energy grid. These initiatives not only enhance the quality of life for residents and sustainable businesses but also contribute to the overall economic development and environmental health of urban areas.
