CO2 neutral future
The seven offshore wind turbines north of Sprogø will generate 66 million kWh per annum, enough to cover the total energy consumption of all Sund & Bælt’s infrastructure facilities. Consequently, Sund & Bælt will be one of the first infrastructure companies in Denmark whose facilities are CO2 neutral.
Caring for nature and the environment
Respect for the climate is nothing new for Sund & Bælt. Since the company’s formation, we have worked pro-actively to demonstrate our respect for nature and the environment. The construction of the fixed links across Storebælt and Øresund was, therefore, carried out in an environmentally responsible manner.
Membership of Global Compact
Sund & Bælt believes that climate issues are a global challenge and that the Group, therefore, must look beyond a purely national scenario as far as the climate challenge is concerned. Consequently, in April 2009, we joined Global Compact, the world’s largest voluntary UN sponsored initiative for corporate social responsibility to which more than 132 companies have signed up. Specifically, Sund & Bælt’s affiliation will mean even stronger focus on the company’s social responsibility and on the further development of an ambitious CSR strategy.
