We specialize in emissions-free industrial-scale solar power projects complemented with energy storage. Our goal is to enable the green transition by producing 800 MWp of solar energy in Finland by the end of 2028. In this way, we will reduce our dependence on fossil fuels, build the transition towards a carbon-neutral society and mitigate climate change. Sustainability is at the core of everything we do, and we do our best to minimize the negative impact of our operations on the environment, nature and communities, both locally and throughout our supply chain.
Skarta monitors sustainability-related indicators annually as part of its ESG reporting. The principles and objectives related to environmental responsibility and good governance are recorded in Skarta’s Code of Conduct and policies (e.g. Environmental policy). The purpose of our social and business policy is to guide our operations, taking into account our impact on social and labour issues, occupational safety and quality, and human rights throughout our supply chain. Below is a summary of the results of the ESG reporting completed at the beginning of the year.
