Center-invest Bank acquired the assets of 2,000 MW of electricity generated by the Staromaryevskaya solar power plant in Stavropol Territory.

Generation attributes are issued by renewable energy producers, are transferred and redeemed via the registry of generation attributes, provision, circulation, and redemption of certificates of origin of electrical energy. The certificate is to finance "green" energy production and allows Center-invest Bank to balance the consumed energy from non-renewable sources.

Center-invest Bank is a signatory to the Sustainable Banking Principles and the United Nations Environment Programme Finance Initiative (UNEP FI). The bank tracks its resource consumption and consistently works to reduce its carbon footprint.

Since 2005, the bank has invested over 24 billion rubles in 24,000 client energy efficiency projects, which has reduced CO2 emissions by 282,000 tons. Since 2020, the bank has been using solar panels on the roof of its head office and acquiring green certificates.

In July 2025, Center-invest Bank purchased carbon units from the energy generating company EL5-Energo PJSC for the first time and offset them to reduce its own carbon footprint.

Responsibility for natural resources, caring for the environment and the health of future generations, and improving the sustainability of small businesses are an integral part of our bank’s ESG strategy.
