"Fortum is a leading
Nordic energy company. Our business covers the entire energy chain, from production
to refining, distribution and marketing, and from energy-related engineering
to operation and maintenance. As a northern European energy company, we operate
in the world's most environmentally aware markets. For example, we are known
for our clean traffic fuels like City Diesel and our eco-efficiency in climate
benign combined heat and power (CHP) generation.
"Sustainable development
is a huge challenge for the whole world. It is clear that a totally new type
of cooperation between various players in society will be required if new solutions
are to materialise. In Fortum, this change has already begun and we are one
of the founding members of the World Business Council for Sustainable Development.
"ICC's Business Charter
for Sustainable Development contains 16 major principles for sound environmental
management. In Fortum, we are determined to be a forerunner and maintain good
environmental, health and safety (EHS) conduct as a success factor. Our fresh
EHS programme for the next ten years reflects this ambition with concrete targets
and actions, especially concerning the climate issue. Our goal is to make the
elements of sustainable development part of our business and take them into
account in all our decision-making.
"We are convinced that
this approach will help us prosper and meet the expectations of our different
stakeholders. "
