At the core of Hitachi Energy’s operations lies the promotion of renewable energy and a greener energy system. More than half of Finnish wind power passes through Hitachi Energy’s equipment — an environmentally beneficial act in itself. And there has been no rest in developing their own operations: Hitachi Energy has reduced its electricity usage emissions by 83 percent.
At Hitachi Energy, one remembers why waking up to work matters.
“We work daily at the forefront of the green energy revolution, moving towards an electrified and renewable production-based energy system and a zero-emission future.”
Matti Vaattovaara, CEO | Hitachi Energy Finland
Future energy experts have also been taken into account. Cultivating the energy expertise of children and young people. Supporting hobbies. Enabling education in developing countries.
And good deeds for the environment are not done at the expense of the staff. Serious investments are made in employees’ mental and physical well-being. Resilience training and recreational benefits. The Auntie service that supports stamina and well-being.
And this is just the tip of the iceberg. In Vaasa, there are thousands of good deeds being done. At work and in leisure. Small and large, for loved ones and strangers. Citizens even collect their good deeds in a counter: yearofgooddeeds.fi
