Städtische Werke Nürnberg GmbH

The Städtische Werke Nürnberg GmbH (StWN) is a leading company in the field of public services, which has been providing central energy and transport services for the Nuremberg area for over 50 years [1]. The group includes several subsidiaries, including N-ERGIE Aktiengesellschaft and VAG Verkehrs-Aktiengesellschaft.

• Energy Supply: N-ERGIE supplies large parts of Middle Franconia with electricity, natural gas, district heating and drinking water [3][5].
• Public Transport: VAG operates an extensive network of buses, trams and subways in Nuremberg [5].

StWN and its subsidiaries attach great importance to responsible and sustainable business practices. They are committed to the regional energy transition and work closely with local institutions to develop innovative solutions [3]. Compliance with human rights and environmental protection are central principles of the company [2].

StWN is actively committed to reducing CO2 emissions. An example of this is the use of innovative technologies such as the two-zone technology in hot water storage tanks, which can save around 30,000 tons of CO2 annually [5]. In addition, qualitative, social and environmental aspects are taken into account in procurement [2]. The implementation of the German Supply Chain Due Diligence Act (LkSG) is a further step towards ensuring sustainable supply chains [2].

StWN is an important part of the regional economy and society, not only by providing basic utility services, but also through social commitment and innovative projects that contribute to regional development.
