What Are Green Investments and Why Are They Important?

14 February 2025
Rönesans Holding invests in green projects for a sustainable future through renewable energy initiatives and energy-efficient buildings.

Green Investments and Rönesans Holding's Vision for a Sustainable Future


Why Are Green Investments Important?

Sustainability has become one of the most critical issues of our time. Climate change, the rapid depletion of natural resources, and increasing environmental pollution have made green investments not just a choice but a necessity. Since the energy and real estate sectors account for a significant portion of global carbon emissions, developing eco-friendly solutions not only helps preserve ecological balance but also ensures long-term economic benefits. Investments in renewable energy, energy-efficient building projects, and environmentally friendly construction technologies form the foundation of a sustainable future.

Rönesans Holding prioritises sustainability in every area it operates, leading the way in eco-friendly investments. With projects that promote renewable energy use, green buildings with a low carbon footprint, and construction practices that comply with international sustainability standards, Rönesans Holding is investing in the future. This vision, which is both environmentally and socially conscious, aims to improve not only the present but also the quality of life for future generations.

What Are Green Investments?

Green investments encompass projects that aim to preserve natural resources and create a sustainable future. Energy efficiency technologies, renewable energy sources, and environmentally friendly building designs are the fundamental components of these investments. Green investments align directly with sustainable development goals, providing long-term benefits for the environment, economy, and society.

Smart systems that ensure energy savings in buildings, projects powered by solar and wind energy, and structures built with eco-friendly materials are indispensable elements of the green investment approach. Producing nature-friendly and sustainable solutions is no longer an option but one of the most fundamental ways to secure the planet's future.

The Intersection of the Energy and Real Estate Sectors

The energy and real estate sectors are two critical areas that are deeply intertwined when it comes to building a sustainable future. Buildings account for a large share of global energy consumption and carbon emissions. Therefore, improving energy efficiency in the construction sector and integrating renewable energy solutions have become necessities.

Real estate projects supported by renewable energy sources protect the environment and reduce operating costs, enhancing economic sustainability. Smart building technologies optimise energy use and prevent unnecessary consumption, fostering a nature-friendly lifestyle. Eco-friendly and energy-efficient structures are shaping the cities of the future, both ecologically and economically.

Green Investments by Rönesans Holding and Rönesans Enerji

With its sustainability-focused projects, Rönesans Holding is leading the way in environmentally friendly energy and real estate investments.

  • RERA-3 Sivas Wind Power Plant reduces carbon emissions by utilising renewable energy.
  • Şanlıurfa Hydroelectric Power Plant contributes to sustainable electricity production through hydroelectric energy.
  • Kale Hybrid Solar Power Plant combines solar and hydroelectric energy sources to produce renewable electricity.
In the real estate sector, Rönesans Gayrimenkul prioritises sustainability by developing eco-friendly projects with LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) and BREEAM (Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method) certifications. These projects promote sustainable urbanisation through energy efficiency, water conservation, and a reduced carbon footprint.

Future Perspective and Industry Trends in Green Investments

Sustainable solutions are shaping the future of investment strategies. As interest in green investments continues to rise in Türkiye and worldwide, governments and the private sector are taking strategic steps toward achieving a low-carbon economy. Global policies such as the European Green Deal encourage energy-efficient and environmentally friendly projects, while Türkiye is accelerating its investments in renewable energy and sustainable infrastructure.

In the coming years, smart cities, zero-carbon buildings, and renewable energy-supported projects will take up an even larger space in the investment landscape. With its vision of sustainable growth, Rönesans Holding continues to be part of this transformation by developing projects that are both environmentally and future-conscious.

In this regard, Rönesans Holding pioneered the first sustainable Eurobond issuance in its sector in Türkiye under its Sustainable Finance Framework, aiming to invest in green and social projects. Meanwhile, Rönesans Enerji has published a Green Finance Framework aligned with international green finance principles to support renewable energy projects. Rönesans Enerji, operating in partnership with Rönesans Holding and TotalEnergies, aims to accelerate its investments by facilitating access to green financing sources through this framework and contribute to the green energy investments outlined in Türkiye's National Energy Plan.

Every contribution to green investments safeguards not only the present but also the future. For a more liveable world, sustainability is no longer a choice but a necessity.
