“Fortum’s district heating is already an excellent choice for the climate, with around 80% generated from renewable energy sources,” says Johan Tjernstrom, Fortum Varme, “and now we are taking the next step, by offering our customers the possibility to offset the remaining fossil emissions. This new service is an easy and cost-efficient way to achieve fully climate neutral heating, and because we are constantly improving our processes, the cost of offsetting the carbon emissions will reduce over time.”
”It is crucial for the climate to reduce carbon emissions,” says Per Egstam, head of offsetting at Tricorona. ”It is equally important to take responsibility for those emissions that remain, and we welcome Fortum Värme’s groundbreaking initiative to offer climate neutral heating.”
