Climate change
On this website, there is a lot of information about Vattenfall's strategies, actions and investments to curb climate change. Below, you will find some shortcuts.
Our view of climate change
Vattenfall understands the urgent need to cut greenhouse gas emissions. Read about our strategies and actions for developing and implementing carbon dioxide (CO2) -reducing measures.
Environmental projects
Vattenfall is investing strongly in efforts to reduce CO2 emissions and to limit the environmental effects of different energy sources. Read about energy efficiency programs, investments in renewable energy and more.
Emission reduction
Vattenfall´s environmental and climate work has a wide scope, though reducing CO2 emissions is the number one objective and all aspects of operations will be monitored with respect to this objective. Read about Vattenfall’s emission reduction goals.
CCS – Carbon Capture and Storage
We need to significantly reduce emissions of CO2 in order to halt climate change. Alternative and sustainable energy sources are being developed but need more time. Fossil fuels will be needed for yet some time. CO2 capture and storage (CCS) can support the transition to a low CO2 energy system. Vattenfall’s project on CCS aims at developing a commercially viable concept by 2020.

Curbing Climate Change
Curbing climate change is about combining technology, finance and policy in a wise way. Vattenfall has performed two major studies with the ambition to show that it is not only necessary to curb climate change, but also possible. Read about our Climate Map and our 100 Year Plan.

3C – A business leaders’ initiative
The 3C initiative – Combat Climate Change – aims at forming a global opinion group consisting of companies showing leadership by demanding an integration of climate issues into the world of market and trade. More than 50 international companies have already signed up.
