We ensure that the lights don't go out and that energy transition can take place in a responsible, efficient and non-discriminatory way. The safety of our employees, service providers and partners is always our top priority. We integrate new technologies and keep up to date with the latest developments in the energy sector. We encourage all our employees to play an active role in shaping the energy transition with their own ideas and practical applications. We rely on our own expertise, but also on collaboration and "open innovation" to learn from others. We also make our knowledge and expertise available in publicly available statements, studies and position papers.
