✅ Reported Environmental Achievements
- Reduced energy consumption significantly from 11,413,879 kWh in 2022 to 6,006,212.78 kWh in 2023. This is partially due to changes in project ownership of measurement points.
- Achieved approximately 93% sorting rate with masses and 89% without masses, exceeding the 87% target.
- Reused large quantities of lightly contaminated masses as a resource in road construction on the E6 Kvænangsfjellet project, saving costs and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
