Engineered for a lighter footprint.
Sustainability
At Efore, environmental responsibility means continuously developing environmentally friendly and energy-efficient products while minimizing the environmental impact of all our operations.
Our products are designed to be energy-efficient, and we strictly control the use of materials. Efore commits to set a public target to reduce the CO2 emissions aligned with the 1.5°C-target set by the Paris Agreement.
Our environmental approach covers the entire product life cycle, from design to recycling or disposal at the end of its life. Efore’s environmental systems are developed, maintained, and certified according to the ISO 14001 standard. We actively contribute to, drive, and follow new regulations in recycling.
Efore’s products meet the requirements of the European Union’s WEEE Directive and are produced in compliance with the RoHS Directive, using lead-free production processes and components that meet the Directive’s criteria.
We organize electronic waste recycling in cooperation with carefully selected partners. Additionally, environmental aspects are included in the selection of suppliers and subcontractors, and these companies are expected to continuously improve their operations towards increased environmental friendliness.
Efore’s environmental policy emphasizes compliance with the ISO 14001 standard and other relevant requirements, regular checking of environmental performance, continuous improvement, environmental awareness, and active communication with all stakeholders.
Cornerstones of our environmental policy
Efore’s environmental policy commits us to
- Consider environmental aspects in all functions and all actions.
- Aim to reduce environmental impact in advance, through continuous improvement.
- Provide guidelines for developing environmental programs.
- Following environmental legislations.
- Maintaining the welfare and safety of our personnel.
- Help improve our customers’ environmental performance.
- Following and developing our suppliers’ environmental capabilities.
Part of the environment and society
Efore is committed to caring for our shared environment and considering environmental aspects in all our activities. We comply with current environmental legislation and regulations. Our environmental policy aims to continuously improve our activities to reduce the environmental impact of both our products and operations. We favor economically and technically feasible solutions that conserve natural resources and aim to avoid environmental damage. We educate our stakeholders about environmental matters and take their feedback into account. We promote the welfare of our personnel by maintaining a safe and satisfying working environment.
Customers
We enhance our customers’ environmental efficiency and bolster our competitiveness by anticipating and meeting the needs and expectations of our customers and stakeholders. Our high-quality, long-lasting, and efficient power and energy storage systems empower customers to utilize renewable energy more effectively, significantly reducing their reliance on fossil fuels.
Suppliers
We pay attention to our suppliers’ environmental behavior and require them to meet environmental legislation and other regulations. We support and encourage our suppliers to develop their own environmental activities.
As a provider of power equipment and lithium batteries, we play a crucial role in reducing carbon footprints, not only for us as a company but also in contributing to a carbon-neutral world through increased investments in research and development and a focus on innovation.
Green Commitment
We are dedicated to reducing our carbon emissions by 50% by the end of 2030. Our calculations for carbon emissions are based on the GHG Protocol, which provides comprehensive, globally standardized frameworks for measuring and managing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions across both private and public sector operations, value chains, and mitigation efforts.
Currently, we are actively measuring and managing carbon emissions under Scope 1, Scope 2, and business travel within Scope 3. We are also exploring and gathering data to effectively measure the relevant categories of the remaining Scope 3 emissions, focusing on identifying the most significant sources.
Our commitment extends to leveraging our influence to improve the measurement and reduction of Scope 3 emissions across our industry sector. During 2025, we continued to strengthen our emissions data collection and baseline management, while expanding our understanding of the most relevant Scope 3 categories. This provides a stronger foundation for defining practical reduction actions and tracking progress toward our 2030 target.
We began measuring our carbon emissions in 2019 when we had operations in Finland, Sweden, and China. In 2022, we expanded by establishing a manufacturing facility in Thailand.
As our business and global operations continue to grow, electricity consumption at manufacturing sites and business travel may increase in the near term. We therefore continuously monitor each operation and identify practical reduction opportunities according to local conditions. Efore’s initial environmental baseline figure is 271121 kg.
Result in 2025
The total carbon emissions in 2025 were 230399 kg.
Emission Reduction Achievements
The total carbon emissions in 2025 were 230399 kg.
Compared to 2024, our total reported carbon emissions increased by approximately 11.3% in 2025 as our business and global operations continued to grow:
- Scope 1 emissions: -25.4%
- Scope 2 emissions: +17.0%
- Scope 3 emissions: +11.8%
The increase in Scope 2 mainly reflects higher electricity consumption associated with the continued development of our manufacturing operations, including Thailand. The increase in reported Scope 3 emissions is also consistent with greater business travel and customer-facing activities as Efore expands internationally.
At the same time, we recognize that business growth cannot become a reason to postpone decarbonization. Meeting our commitment to reduce carbon emissions by 50% by 2030 will require a combination of operational efficiency, lower-carbon electricity, renewable energy generation and disciplined management of business travel and other material emission sources.
Commitment to Sustainable Expansion
Efore is in an expansion phase, with growing manufacturing activity and customer engagement across multiple regions. Electricity use and business travel may therefore increase in the short term. We will strengthen local support, improve operational efficiency and reduce avoidable travel while maintaining customer service.
We will continue to improve travel planning, use digital collaboration where appropriate and evaluate credible compensation measures for emissions that cannot yet be avoided.
We will also evaluate longer-term decarbonization measures, including on-site solar generation, renewable electricity, energy-efficiency improvements and energy storage where feasible. These actions will support our 2030 reduction target and our longer-term ambition toward carbon-neutral operations.
Our objective is to progressively decouple business growth from emissions growth while continuing to provide reliable service to our global customers.
Certificates
All Efore sites are certified according to the ISO 9001 Quality Management System, ISO 14001 Environmental Management System, and ISO 27001 Information Security Management System.
