Our Vision
At Statkraft Ireland we believe that sustainability must be achievable, deliverable, make us stronger and must be long lasting. Our vision is that transitioning to renewable energy should make our society, communities, environment and economy stronger and more resilient - not only in the future, but in the here and now. We embrace initiatives that promote sustainable resilience today and continue delivering benefits year after year. Our approach of delivering sustainable resilience focuses on the following main areas:
Energy Security
At Statkraft Ireland we have delivered XXXMW onto the Irish electricity grid system since 2018, powered by Ireland’s own natural resources.
Each MW means that we move a step closer to energy independence and our countries resilience against external geopolitical factors that affect global oil and gas prices.
Supporting Communities
Our projects have the capacity to deliver significant gains both nationally and locally. We are committed to delivering long term benefits to the areas that our projects operate in. These benefits span across social, economic and environmental area. We seek opportunities to work with people to capture tailor made plans to deliver positive benefits making communities stronger year on year.
Biodiversity at the Forefront
Our teams work to ensure that the local environment is to the forefront of consideration in all project developments. Our focus on biodiversity is aimed at making sure that the environment around our projects end up stronger and more resilient over time. Local knowledge can be invaluable in delivering on this objective.
