Innovating sustainable offers

Sustainability at Hager is most tangible in what we bring to market. In 2025, Hager introduced a new generation of solutions that connect energy distribution, energy management, and digital intelligence into integrated systems for residential, commercial, and industrial buildings. The ambition: to turn buildings from passive energy consumers into active participants in the energy transition.

This starts with the electrical backbone. Hager combines circuit protection, distribution boards, and wiring systems with energy storage, EV charging, and intelligent management software. Together, these create a connected ecosystem where energy is produced, stored, distributed, and optimised within a single building or across an entire portfolio. Innovation in materials, connectivity, and system design runs through every layer of this offer.

The following pages show how this translates into practice: a new wiring accessories system that sets new standards in circular product design with 50% recycled plastics and native smart-building connectivity, a stadium renovation proving Hager’s capability for large-scale, sustainability-driven projects, a renewed EV charging portfolio with bidirectional Vehicle-to-Home technology, and AI-driven platforms that help buildings optimise consumption in real time.
