We have raised our ambitions

Sustainability and all that it encompasses is constantly expanding. At Solar, Science Based Targets initiatives (SBTi), with the commitments it entails, has become an integral part of business.
Our target is to become Net-Zero in our own operations by 2030 and to reduce our CO2e by 25% across the value chain.

Solar acquires Danish heat pump manufacturer ThermoNova

On 1 March 2023, Solar acquired 51% of ThermoNova A/S, which manufactures and supplies high-capacity heat pumps. The investment should accelerate the green transition of both small and large companies.

“The need for energy-efficient solutions is rapidly increasing. As a company we have a desire and an obligation to be a part of the green transition. ThermoNova delivers unique solutions with great potential, and they will strengthen our position as a company within climate and energy solutions”, says CEO Jens Andersen.

Net-Zero in 2030

Our target is to become Net-Zero in our own operations by 2030 and to reduce our CO2e by 25% across the value chain.

To govern an accountable business is key, because we believe accountability is the best starting point to improve our contribution to the green agenda. Therefore, we have formalised our commitment through a strategy founded upon transparency. We work with recognised NGOs and measure ourselves against international benchmarks. Living up to ethical and corporate guidelines matches our ambition to be an accountable and responsible company.

Letter from our CEO

We have raised our ambitions.
In line with the Paris Agreement of 1.5 C˚, we have already set our target to become Net-Zero in our own operations by 2030. Moreover, we are committed to reducing our CO₂e emissions by 25% across the value chain by 2030, compared to 2020. We are currently awaiting validation of our targets by Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).

This commitment and everything it entails, has become an integral part of our daily business.
