Energy and our environment
One of our strategic ambitions is to be Number One for the environment. We strive for sustainable development by trying to find a balance between the needs of our customers, responsible care for the environment and a healthy economy
All of today’s globally used energy sources will continue to be required in the foreseeable future. We have to make long-term choices, and manage the energy sources needed in different countries efficiently and responsibly.
An important balancing act
All use of energy affects our environment: construction of power stations and power lines causes intrusion in the landscape; building and operating power stations consumes raw materials and energy; and many energy sources produce emissions and waste. But we must still bear in mind that energy is a prerequisite for life, and electricity makes important contributions to our health and welfare.
