Sustainability & Social Impact

In the 2024/25 academic year, CETIN Hungary—Hungary’s first mobile telecommunications infrastructure service provider—partnered with the Association of Hungarian Women in Science (NaTE) to deliver the second season of STEMpowered by CETIN, a complex talent development program for secondary school girls. Designed to inspire interest in STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) and support informed career choices, the program once again achieved strong results. Participant feedback shows that STEMpowered not only raised awareness about STEM pathways but also empowered girls with the confidence and skills needed for their future careers.

As part of the ESG Strategy of PPF Group and CETIN Group, CETIN Bulgaria has completed the installation of photovoltaic systems on their data centers in Sofia and Plovdiv.

CETIN Bulgaria, in collaboration with Yettel Bulgaria, has taken a major step toward sustainability by signing a 10-year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with Elektrohold for the supply of electricity from renewable sources. The energy will be generated by a 123 MW photovoltaic plant, expected to be operational in spring 2023. Elektrohold Trade, a leading energy trader within the Electrohold Group (part of Eurohold—the largest public holding company in Bulgaria), manages the purchase and delivery process.
