How we create value for stakeholders

The aim of our strategic choices is to create value for our stakeholders who have diverse needs. To serve their interests as best as possible, we engage in a dialogue with them. Together we decide what is needed to shape our energy system of the future.

Our value creation process is based on careful choices, from input to impact. In our three stakeholder chapters, we take a closer look at the realised value.
