Sustainability

Building a more sustainable world

Sustainability, efficiency and leading the way are our core values. They guide the work we do for a better, more sustainable future.

We produce renewable energy onshore and offshore for our owners – eight city-owned energy companies – and help them reach their carbon neutrality targets. The energy we produce will be delivered to Finnish households and industries through our owners. It also helps strengthen Finland’s security of supply and the stability of our national grid.

We carry out environmental studies and follow-ups in our wind farms throughout the entire lifecycle from planning to operation. In addition to the monitoring required by permit conditions and regulations, we also carry out extra monitoring, often together with local nature associations. Among other things, we study the movements and population fluctuations of breeding and migratory birds, and monitor the development of fish and game populations at our wind farm sites.

We make sure that all observations from the monitoring are recorded in public databases such as laji.fi and tiira.fi, where they can be used in conservation and research work. This requirement is included in the tendering process.

We want to engage in good and open interaction with stakeholders in our wind farm sareas, such as landowners, decision-makers and residents. We provide work for local people throughout the lifecycle of our projects and support local communities, especially activities for children and young people.

Internally and with our partners, we always follow practices in line with our ethical guidelines and good governance.
