In November 2021, Iren launched its most ambitious project to date, a ten-year Business Plan that aims to design a sustainable future for its territories for the benefit of every community. In November 2025, Iren updated its Business Plan, increasing its strategic focus and reviewing its capital allocation in order to ensure stable and visible returns over time and careful financial discipline.

The business plan for 2030 provides for technical investments of €6.4 billion and is integrated into a transition plan for 2040, which sees Iren committed to a concrete and measurable long-term path, in line with the European Sustainable Development Goals. ESG commitments and targets are developed in accordance with the guidelines of ecological transition and the centrality of communities and people, and are divided into five focus areas: decarbonisation, circular economy, water resources, resilient cities and people. For each performance indicator identified, Iren has set quantitative improvement targets for 2028, 2030 and 2040, outlining a clear and monitorable path over time. In order to achieve these objectives, the commitment in terms of investment has been assessed and technological developments such as CO2 capture have also been hypothesised.
