Finn-Korkki’s heating and electricity is now close to 100% from renewable energy sources
At Finn-Korkki we are environmentally conscious, and we want to do our part to curb the climate change. As one measure, we have increased the share of renewable energy as a source of heating and electricity.
For example, electricity we use is produced from 100% renewable energy sources. It is important our electricity partner is also committed to the environmental objectives.
For the heating solution, we have chosen a local district heating provider, Loimua Oy, which produce almost carbon neutral energy. Thanks to their new bio-boiler, the share of renewable fuels has increased up to 90% which is remarkable improvement for the environment. The bio-boiler uses wood-based fuels, such as surplus forest thinning as well as by-products of the wood product industry, like sawdust and wood bark.
Beside the used energy sources, we are approved under ISO 14001 environmental management system standard which demonstrates our company's commitment to environmental protection and sustainable development.
