Vonovia SE has declared a “public commitment or position statement to conduct your engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement,” yet we found no evidence of any accompanying governance mechanisms such as oversight structures, monitoring or management processes, a named individual or committee responsible for lobbying alignment, or detailed policies for ensuring coherence across direct and indirect lobbying activities, indicating limited governance of its climate lobbying efforts.

Vonovia SE offers only limited insight into its climate-related lobbying. It does identify one concrete piece of legislation it is working under—the “Use Instead of Curtailment” Act (Section 13k of the German Energy Industry Act, December 2023)—and links a pilot project in its housing stock to that law, but it does not name any other climate policies it seeks to influence. The company describes a single clear lobbying channel, noting “direct engagement with Germany’s Federal Minister for Economic Affairs and Climate Protection, Robert Habeck,” yet provides no further detail on additional meetings, submissions, coalitions or other targets. With respect to what it hopes to achieve, Vonovia states that it wants to decarbonise its heat supply by “replacing gas with surplus renewable electricity” so as to achieve a “virtually climate-neutral building portfolio by 2045,” but it does not articulate specific legislative amendments or regulatory thresholds it is advocating for. Overall, the disclosure gives a snapshot of one engagement but falls short of a comprehensive explanation of the policies, mechanisms and concrete outcomes that shape the company’s climate-policy lobbying.
