Annual and Sustainability Report 2025

Climate and environment, social responsibility and governance

Our sustainability work is based on three areas: environment, social responsibility, and good corporate governance (ESG).

Climate and environment (E)

Our aim is to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across the entire value chain by 2035, as well as to offer energy services and waste treatment that make it possible for both energy customers and waste treatment customers to achieve their climate goals.

The focus is on strengthening climate performance, reducing emissions and promoting innovation for the energy systems of the future:

  • Launching Beccs Stockholm in 2028 for permanent negative emissions
  • Ensuring sustainable biofuels through developed control systems
  • Phasing out fossil oil by 2032
  • Introducing circular solutions and cost models for waste management services that provide incentives for increased sorting 
  • Developing CCS solutions or similar concepts for waste incineration with no net impact on the climate
  • Optimising the use of energy and resources through energy management systems
  • Reducing environmental incidents through proactive and preventive environmental work and investments in high availability

Social responsibility (S)

We will offer a safe, inclusive and attractive workplace where employees can develop and thrive. Our priorities are to:

  • Strengthen the safety culture and minimise workplace accidents
  • Ensure good health and safety for our own staff and suppliers
  • Respect human rights throughout the value chain
  • Offer inclusive leadership and skills development
  • Contribute to an inclusive labour market in line with our skills requirements
  • Strengthen customer satisfaction through long-term relationships and a high level of service

In this way, we are building commitment, diversity and sustainability throughout the organisation.

Governance (G)

Our business conduct guidelines and our sustainability policy form the basis for the way we work. We will conduct operations with a view to safety, efficiency and transparency. Priorities include:

  • Developing working methods that ensure compliance with business conduct principles
  • Ensuring that the code of conduct and sustainability requirements are met internally and by suppliers
  • Working with efficient, certified management systems that support everyday processes
  • Maintaining zero tolerance for irregularities

In this way, we are creating trust, stability and long-term sustainable business development.
