Our focus on renewable energy has paid off with a growth of 70% during 2023 in our Energy business unit. This sector presents a substantial growth opportunity for Wirtek, driven by the worldwide focus on renewable energy.
Our 2023 annual report outlines the baseline for Wirtek’s ESG reporting, and we intend to intensify the focus on ESG as part of our strategy, leading up to us adhering to the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) no later than in 2026.”
