RESPECT FOR THE MOUNTAINS
FOR A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE
The mountains, in all their wild beauty, are not just recreation and leisure spots. They are also home to a wide array of plant and animal species and serve as an essential economic resource for local farmers: Merano 2000 is committed to preserving this delicate balance for future generations.
For years, a range of initiatives and projects have been implemented to foster respect for the mountains. These efforts touch upon various aspects, from biodiversity conservation to erosion protection, and even company-specific measures in human resources management.
In early 2024, Merano 2000 launched a strategic sustainability initiative, formalising development efforts to ensure the area remains resilient and sustainable for years to come.

SUSTAINABILITY
REPORT
In the autumn of 2023, Merano 2000 Funivie Spa began a process to define its strategic and sustainable direction. This led to the creation of its first sustainability report, which focuses on three key macro-topics: Ecology, Social Issues and Governance.
Within this framework, eight critical areas were identified, with specific objectives and actions defined for each.
The publication of this inaugural report thus marks the beginning of a journey towards enhancing the resilience and protection of the area – preserving natural cycles, infrastructure, employees and partners alike.
Energy consumption plays a pivotal role in the carbon footprint and deserves special attention. As and from 2023, Merano 2000 has been using exclusively 100% green energy produced by Alperia to power its ski lifts.
The goal is to further enhance energy management in the coming years by incorporating photovoltaic installations and energy recovery systems, such as those used for storage in PODs.
