For example, the airport is working to reduce CO2 emissions through the use of renewable energy sources, such as solar energy. There are several solar energy installations on the airport grounds. The expansion of renewable energy capacity should help the airport become fully energy neutral. Smart energy management solutions serve the same purpose, monitoring and optimizing energy consumption. In construction projects, the airport applies far-reaching circular construction principles, such as the reuse of materials and the design of easily demountable buildings. \u2018Material Passports\u2019 describe which materials have been used and how they can be reused in the future. The use of electric vehicles is encouraged on the airport grounds. In addition, the airport is working with airlines to introduce sustainable fuels. These include biofuels and, in the future, possibly synthetic kerosene.

For example, the company is involved in various projects for carbon capture and storage in the North Sea. This is a core component of their strategy to reduce their carbon footprint. Advanced monitoring technologies are used to detect and reduce methane emissions. The oil and gas company also supports its sustainability ambitions with specific measures for asset management. It makes use of \u2018digital twins\u2019 (virtual replications) of installations to improve operational efficiency and optimize maintenance. This leads to lower emissions and more sustainable management of the company&#8217;s assets.

The annual report describes, for example, investments in smart meters and the real-time monitoring of systems. These types of technologies make it possible to improve the efficiency of the electricity grid and better respond to the demand for renewable energy. The integration of renewable energy is achieved through the development of decentralized energy sources, such as solar panels and wind turbines. Together with local communities, the energy company is working on the implementation of these types of sustainable energy solutions. Finally, the company issues green bonds to finance sustainable infrastructure projects, such as networks suitable for the transport of green hydrogen.
