Towards decarbonisation
Energy industry has taken leaps to develop solutions towards carbon neutral energy. The role of power and heating is changing. We are in a transition from fossil fuels to bioenergy, from biofuels to non-combustion and use of electricity. This transformation requires future foresight, planning, cooperation among players, and concrete actions.
While we are in the middle of the energy crisis, sustainability, climate and the green transformation are on our utility infrastructure customers´ agenda heavier than ever. Speeding up the green transformation is an opportunity which many companies have grasped. The time to act is now. The transformational benefits are fast becoming a necessity. Building competitiveness is created upon early mover approach. Companies that have acted early, have been building sustainable energy solutions and are now better positioned to focus on growth. The benefits of green transformation vary from flexibility to meeting varying requirements and conditions, energy and cost efficiency, reduction of emissions and enabling circular economy, thus minimising waste.
The transition towards decarbonisation must be just, taking into consideration social, economic and environmental impacts. All these factors are crucial towards the joint vision and minimising negative side effects. Together we are part of a movement providing solutions to climate and biodiversity. Every action contributes to a bigger goal.
