ENGIE & Roland Garros: a committed match for a more sustainable future

Since 2014, ENGIE and Roland Garros have stood shoulder-to-shoulder, focused on a shared objective: extending the influence of sport while speeding up the energy transition. This iconic partnership is fully in line with Impact Together, ENGIE’s CSR policy which puts people and the planet right the heart of everything it does.
