CEZ Group received an international ESG Transparency Award from EUPD Research for the scope and openness of its reporting and communication of sustainability-related data. With a score of 96.86%, it emerged at the top of the rankings not only in the industry category, but also in the category of companies with over 5,000 employees. Hundreds of companies from 27 countries entered the competition.

CEZ Group launched a new programme called Photovoltaic Academy, aimed at providing insight into the latest trends concerning large solar installations in the energy sector. The intensive, week-long internship teamed up students from Czech universities with technicians from Zambia and Lesotho, two countries where CEZ Group implements foreign ESG projects aimed at mitigating climate change and strengthening the resilience of local communities. The Photovoltaic Academy programme fulfils the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) Number 7: to ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all.

CEZ Group achieved an operating profit before depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) of CZK 103.2 bn for the first three quarters of 2025. Net profit amounted to CZK 21.5 bn, while adjusted net profit, which is key for the dividend proposal, reached CZK 22.2 bn. The results confirm the company’s stability during a period of ongoing energy transformation and significant capital expenditures in upgrades and development. Generation from nuclear power plants grew, and for the whole of 2025, ČEZ expects to generate almost 32 TWh of emission-free electricity from nuclear sources, which is a record-high value and 2 TWh more than last year.
