Targets
What we want to achieve by 2030
Our 20-year goal for 2030 is to triple the value we create for the environmental footprint made by our operations, products and services. To reach our goal of becoming three times more efficient by 2030, we will have to improve our efficiency by an average of 5 to 6 percent each year. We reached our targets for 2011 to 2015, improving the relationship between the value we create and our environmental footprint by 38 percent overall, and there was an efficiency increase of 64 percent by 2020.
Our interim targets so far represent important milestones on the journey toward our long-term goal of becoming three times more efficient by 2030. On the way to achieving our long-term goal, we want to further improve our performance and have therefore defined new interim targets for 2025:
