Scania – one of the initiators and partners in Sustainable Innovation

1 September 2008 | Tags: Climate change, Environment | Posted in: Environment

On 1st September a unique Swedish cooperation started with the purpose to develop and invest in clean-tech projects and business ideas.

Sustainable Innovation AB was founded by a group of companies and with the support of the Swedish Energy Agency. It is given the task to muster the best Swedish competence within clean-tech development and energy efficiency.

Sustainable Innovation will initiate and lead projects together with the member companies. Projects can include both such ones which do not fit within individual companies R&D-operations as well as joint projects involving several companies and partners.

- Our participation is a further expression of Scania’s involvement and response to the climate change issue. For a long time we have worked to decrease the energy consumption in our production and in our products. By our participation in Sustainable Innovation we broaden our network and will have access to developments in this field also outside our industry, comments Hasse Johansson Group Vice President and Head of Research and Development.
