Corporate social responsibility
“It is our task and our responsibility to work towards developing energy solutions that accord with sustainable development in society. It is not enough just to consider the environmental aspects of each individual energy solution. An energy system must contribute to sustainable development in society, not only from an environmental perspective, but also from social and economic perspectives. It must be able to meet today’s needs without jeopardising the ability for future generations to meet theirs.” Lars G. Josefsson, CEO
What we want – our CSR vision
Vattenfall is committed to meeting society’s need for energy in a responsible manner. The guiding principle is that meeting the needs of the present must never compromise the ability for the future generations to meet theirs. The criteria for acceptable impact from energy generation and supply must be set in dialogue with society, within a framework defines by regelations and markets mechanism. Vattenfall has high ambitions and contributes to sustainable development through the accumulation of knowledge for use by and to the benefit of society, as well as through the decisions we make and the actions we take.
Our view on sustainable development
We see sustainable development as a continious process of finding the best solution for society using available technologies on the basis of balancing environmental, social and economic factors.
CSR Report
People have views about Vattenfall and its operations and we are aware that working in the energy sector is a great responsibility. Listening and communicating are important tools in our work with social responsibility issues and our annual Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) report is a good example of Vattenfall’s approach.
