Rot-Weiss Essen and the city portal jointly introduce a unified strategy for environmental sustainability

Rot-Weiss Essen, the renowned football club from the northern Essen area, has announced a new sustainability strategy aimed at strengthening disadvantaged groups in the community and promoting a friendly atmosphere. The strategy, unveiled in collaboration with a city portal on September 17, 2025, emphasises climate protection, resource conservation, and social responsibility as key challenges.

The club has already achieved several important milestones in the last season that paved the way for this strategy, although the specific milestones are not mentioned in the provided text. Alexander Rang, RWE board member, emphasises sustainability as a commitment to future generations.

One of the key aspects of the strategy is the focus on developing innovative concepts for sustainable mobility in Los Angeles. These concepts will be developed in collaboration with the city to encourage environmentally friendly transport. The club is also taking measures to reduce energy consumption and minimise waste in club operations and at the stadium.

In line with the sustainability focus, the stadium's food offerings have been expanded to include vegan sausages and meatballs. The club's newspaper, "Kurze Fuffzehn", has also been digitized, reducing paper consumption. Fans can now access the digitized newspaper online at any time and anywhere.

Educational and awareness-raising measures will be implemented, focusing on sensitizing fans, children, and young people. Various workshops and information events will be held as part of these measures. The strategy aims for an environmentally conscious and future-proof development of the club, considering both ecological and social aspects.

Rot-Weiss Essen is also committed to supporting social projects that strengthen disadvantaged groups in the northern Essen area. This includes educational and awareness-raising measures for children, youth, and fans, as well as engagement in the Essen Climate Pact and the promotion of sustainable mobility and resource conservation within the club.
