UK energy company RWE npower has released its sixth full corporate responsibility report, available online at www.rwenpowercr.com.

The report describes how the company is responding to the challenge of delivering affordable and reliable energy to their customers with the least impact on the environment. It also describes their achievements in 2008, and the targets they have set for 2009 and beyond as they strive to undertake all aspects of their business responsibly.

Key facts from the report include:
