SUSTAINABILITY STRATEGIES
Franz Jung has spent most of his career in the automotive business: 18 years with BMW, four with Porsche. Seven years ago, he made an unexpected transition and joined Envision Energy, a global renewable energy technology company, as Vice President alongside taking on the role of Chairman of Envision Racing.“ It was completely new for me, coming from the pure petrol engine automotive industry into a smart technology company.”
Envision Energy is less than 20 years old, yet was the second biggest wind turbine producer in 2024.“ We are not only building wind turbines,” Franz explains.“ We are also operating wind farms. We are in the storage business, so we produce the wind, we store the energy, we release the energy when it’ s needed the most.” It also uses energy in one of the world’ s fastest sports.
The company is not an automotive manufacturer and has no car brands in its portfolio, but entered Formula E
