- This week, our Head of Sustainability, Annika Ramsköld, is representing Vattenfall at COP29 in Baku to discuss ambitious climate targets, carbon pricing, and the investment frameworks needed for a sustainable future. With nearly 76% of global emissions still outside carbon pricing, COP29 is a crucial moment to strengthen this tool and set new finance goals to drive industry-wide decarbonization. At Vattenfall, we’re committed to showing that net-zero is achievable! “Fossil-free energy production is a key prerequisite for the climate transition in other sectors as well, and so we play an important role. It is particularly important to be there to ensure that the meetings translate into clear plans and to demonstrate urgency. After all, climate change is already a reality. It is extremely worrying and, unfortunately, a very real prospect that, this year, we might end up with a global average temperature that exceeds the critical 1.5-degree target,” says Annika Ramsköld. Together, with global leaders, we can build a pathway to bold, impactful climate action. Read more: https://lnkd.in/eyaGuwBC #COP29 #Vattenfall #sustainability #netzero #climateaction
Vattenfall at COP29: “We are here to help keep up the pace of the transition” group.vattenfall.com - Third quarter 2024: Despite a year characterised by falling electricity prices, Vattenfall reports a higher operating profit for the first nine months of the year, mainly due to higher achieved prices in the Nordics and increased generation. The profit for the period was also strengthened by both capital gains and by changes in market value for energy derivatives. Among the quarter’s more important strategic events are the inauguration of the offshore wind farms Vesterhav Nord and Syd in Denmark, the decision to pause the Swedish Kriegers Flak offshore wind farm project, and new partnerships with industrial companies in Sweden and Germany.

Wind turbine turned into compact living 🏠 In the coming decades, thousands of wind turbines will be demolished or replaced. Components of steel, for instance, can be melted down and reused, but the downside is that this takes a lot of energy and creates emissions. It would be better if the materials could be reused with as little processing as possible. Last year, Vattenfall invited four design firms to think about a second life for wind turbines that have reached the end of their working life. Together with design studio Superuse we converted a nacelle, the top part of a wind turbine, into a fully functioning tiny house. Learn more about this project and its prominent display at the Dutch Design Week: https://lnkd.in/eWmPvQq5 #Vattenfall #windenergy #tinyhouse #DDW24 #design #innovation #fossilfreedom - Why is Caroline Häggström, Head of Vattenfall Customer Service in Sweden, looking out from the Times Square billboard? The answer: she has been named a Stand Out 50 Leader for her exceptional management skills. “It honestly feels a bit unreal! It came as a surprise, but I'm obviously very happy and proud. Many thanks to those who nominated me and to the entire Vattenfall Customer Service team for their trust and commitment to the fantastic journey we are making together,” says Caroline Häggström.

- THE EDIT is your monthly briefing on the journey to fossil freedom. In the September issue: 🥗 Start playing with your food right now, young lady! Mussels and seaweed are farmed at the Danish Kriegers Flak offshore wind farm and turned into meals at an unusual cooking class. 🥬 Vertical farming is turning agriculture on its head Instead of relying on vast fields and favourable weather, vertical farming is done in controlled environments using LED lights. 💥 Fossil-free fertiliser – a dual climate hero Making ammonia production fossil-free will mean a huge reduction in greenhouse gas emissions.

- Vattenfall’s Business Area Wind has been named as one of the sustainability leaders in the renewable energy sector for its focus on responsible business. We are proud that our progress to date has been recognised under the International RBC Agreement for the Renewable Energy Sector covering human rights and environmental due diligence. However, we also know there is more to be done to ensure a just transition. By teaming up with others – including our competitors, civil society organisations and trade unions – we believe we can leverage our efforts for wider benefit. Work is already ongoing in the agreement on for example worker welfare on renewable energy sites and forced labour in supply chains. Vattenfall has also developed an action plan to address the gaps in our policies and processes ahead of the next assessment in 2025. This includes ramping up our training on due diligence and improving our grievance mechanisms and remediation processes.#Vattenfall #windpower #sustainability
Vattenfall recognised as sustainability leader in the renewable energy sector group.vattenfall.com - The way we talk about climate change matters: negative news discourages audiences, while balanced, hopeful communication can inspire action and has the potential to unite us in the fight against climate change. In journalist and communication scholar Dr. Mark Lee Hunter, we found a partner to facilitate our conference in Brussels. We asked “Can climate communication overcome the bad news problem?” and invited diverse leaders from media, science, NGOs, politics and business to Brussel so they could share their experiences and knowledge. A key finding: while drawing attention to the root causes of climate change, it is equally important to offer solutions as part of the stories we tell.
