WE ARE AT THE FOREFRONT OF DRIVING CHANGE IN RAPIDLY EVOLVING OPERATING ENVIRONMENT 

Our operating environment is on the brink of a significant transformation. The opportunities and demands presented by the green transition are becoming increasingly tangible and emerging at a faster pace.  

Traditional energy operations are under significant pressure to evolve, as energy systems are rapidly modernising and becoming increasingly integrated with other industries.  

Circular economy operations are undergoing a transformation, as achieving a high recycling rate and converting waste into new high-value final products is not simple. The evolving operating environment is also increasingly reflected in the changing needs of our customers, which we are committed to addressing through our operations.  

For us, the rapid pace of change presents numerous new opportunities. We believe that responding swiftly and decisively to environmental changes, while actively participating in the green transition, will create attractive growth opportunities and improve the productivity and competitiveness of our operations.   

KEY ROLE IN THE GREEN TRANSITION

Our role in the green transition involves reforming the energy system and reducing our own carbon footprint. At the same time, we also reduce our customers’ carbon footprints by providing them with less climate-impacting energy solutions. We are advancing hydrogen and circular economy initiatives and creating even better opportunities for the electrification of society.

WE ARE ENSURING THE SUCCESS OF OUR STRATEGY BY INVESTING IN PRODUCTIVITY, GROWTH, AND ENHANCING CABABILITIES 

The success of our strategy is based on three key strategic themes: productivity, growth, and capabilities.  

Improving productivity is a priority for us, as rising costs and growing pressures for change in the operating environment continue to intensify. Improving productivity also plays a key role in financing our growth investments. Investing in productivity means enhancing cost-efficiency, flexibility, and optimisation, as well as developing a capital allocation model and reforming our energy system.  

Through growth, we harness the opportunities presented by the operating environment to support the green transition. Investing in growth means successfully implementing selected growth opportunities and developing customer relationships to achieve shared success. 

Capabilities play a crucial role in the success of our strategy. Our four trump cards for achieving a competitive advantage are expertise, culture, data, and artificial intelligence. 

FOR US, SUCCESS IS DEFINED BY STRONG GROWTH AND ENHANCED PROFITABILITY

When we succeed, the size and profitability of our operations will double by the end of this decade. Sources of high growth are the growth of our current business operations and our expansion to other industries.

Our roots run deep in the North, where we draw on Northern power—an upright and honest energy that helps us meet today’s challenges.

We have the will, the courage, and the expertise. Together, we are building a future where future generations can take pride in the results of our work.
