Environmental and resource policy and significant environmental aspects at Reykjavík Energy – development and structure

Abstract

The environmental and resource policy reflects Reykjavik Energy (RE) and its subsidiaries’ commitment to continually improve in the field of environmental affairs. It serves as a guide to the company and forms the basis for good collaboration with stakeholders. The environmental and resource policy is rooted in the values of the owners of RE as well as core values of the company. The policy centres on five core principles. Then for each of the five principles the policy is implemented through targeted management and continuous improvement in significant environmental aspects.
